To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the heat lost by the hot water The heat lost by the hot water can be calculated using the formula: \[ Q = m \cdot s \cdot \Delta T \] Where: - \( m \) = mass of the hot water = 40 g - \( s \) = specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g·K ...
