The sign's glass absorbed 25466.7 J

Further explanation

Given

The temperature of glass : 23.5 °C to 65.5 °C

mass = 905 g

the specific heat capacity = 0.67 J/g °C

Required

Heat absorbed

Solution

Heat absorbed by sign's glass can be formulated :


\tt Q=m.c.\Delta T

ΔT=65.5 - 23.5 = 42


\tt Q=905* 0.67* 42\\\\Q=\boxed{\bold{25466.7~J}}
