Answer #1

The question can be addressed by means of specific heat, which is defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1gm of a substance by 1o centigrade.

Specific heat of iron is 0.450J/goC and that of copper is 0.385 J/goC. Thus for the same masses of iron and copper pan heated for the same time, more amount of energy is required for iron than that of copper (Since specific heat of iron is more than that of copper). As a result of which after 5min copper pan will be at a higher temperature.

A 4-mm thick, 20cm diameter cast iron frying pan (K = 55 W/mK) is heated on a traditional stovetop range. Under certain stovetop settings, the temperature on the bottom surface of the pan (in contact with the heating element) is measured to be 160°C and that on the inside of the pan (cooking surface) is 150°C. Using the heat diffusion equation, find an expression (specific solution) for the temperature distribution across the thickness of the pan.

You take a 150.485 g piece of copper and heat it over a Bunsen burner. After a few minutes of heating you place the heated copper into 500 g of water at 25.00 ̊C. After a while you measure the temperature of the water and find that it is 45.32 ̊C. What was the temperature of the metal before you put it in the water? The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/(g∙ ̊C). Assume no energy was lost.
