Answer:

The heat energy required is, E = 2200 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The mass of paraffin, m = 2 Kg

The energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 200° C = 44000 J

Then the heat energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 10° C is given by,

Since 44000 J raises temperature by 200° C, then

E = 44000 J / 20

= 2200 J

Hence, the energy required to raise the temperature of the paraffin by 10° C is, E = 2200 J
