Answer #1

mass of iron M = 0.44 kg

Initial temprature of the iron t = 555 oC

Mass of water m = 18.1 kg

Initial temprature of water t ' = 24 oC

Specific heat of iron C = 450 J / kg oC

Specific heat of water c = 4186 J / kg oC

Heat lost by iron = Heat gain by water

          MC(t - T ) = mc(T-t ')

   199.8 (555-T ) = 75766.6 (T-24)

             555-T = 379.21 (T-24)

                      = 379.21 T - 9101

        380.21 T =9656

                   T = 9656 /380.21

                      = 25.39 oC

The final equilibrium temperature T= 25.39
