A particular TEC , operating at room temperature (25°C), is found to remove 4.1 joules of thermal energy from a piece of aluminium each second. The dimensions of the aluminium are 35mm x 42mm x 4.1mm.
If the TEC has been operating for 1 minute, what temperature (in °C) will the aluminium have reached?

In SI units the density of aluminium is 2710 and the specific heat is 900.

so i think it is this formula
q=cm(Tfinal-Tinitial)

anonymous · Answer

so c =900 and m =0.021022012
p-m/v

anonymous · Answer

but what is q????

anonymous · Answer

unless I am totally wrong heading to mars or something

anonymous · Answer

oh thats p-m/v is meant to be p=m/v
