What is your school SUBJECT?

Answer 2

Please type your <u>subject</u> in the <b>School Subject</b> box. Any other words, <u>including obscure abbreviations</u>, are likely to delay responses from a teacher who knows that subject well.

heat in = specific heat * mass * change in temp
heat in = .057 * 10 *20
= 5.7 * 2 = 11.4 calories
