The correct Answer is:
To find the final temperature \( T \) of the water after mixing, we can use the principle of conservation of energy, which states that the heat lost by the hot water will be equal to the heat gained by the cold water. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the masses and temperatures:** - Mass of hot water, \( m_1 = 100 \, \text{g} \) - Initial temperature of hot water, \( T_1 = 90^\circ C \) - Mass of cold water, \( m_2 = 600 \, \text{g} \) - Initial temperature of cold water, \( T_2 = 20^\circ C \) 2. **Set up the heat transfer equation:** The heat lost by the hot water is equal to the heat gained by the cold water: \[ m_1 c (T_1 - T) = m_2 c (T - T_2) \] where \( c \) is the specific heat capacity of water (which cancels out). 3. **Substituting the values:** \[ 100 (90 - T) = 600 (T - 20) \] 4. **Expand both sides:** \[ 9000 - 100T = 600T - 12000 \] 5. **Rearranging the equation:** Combine like terms: \[ 9000 + 12000 = 600T + 100T \] \[ 21000 = 700T \] 6. **Solve for \( T \):** \[ T = \frac{21000}{700} = 30^\circ C \] ### Final Answer: The final temperature \( T \) of the water after mixing is \( 30^\circ C \).
