heat lost by object + heat gained by water = 0
[mass object x specific heat object x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] + [mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] = 0
Substitute the numbers from the problem and solve for specific heat object.
[mass object x specific heat object x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] + [mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] = 0
Substitute the numbers from the problem and solve for specific heat object.
