Answer:
669.76s or 11.16mins
Step-by-step explanation:
Mass of kettle (Mk) = 500g
Mass of water (Mw) = 1.0kg = 1000g
Power = 500w
θ₁ = 18°C
θ₂ = 98°C
specific heat capacity of water (c) = 4.186J/g*°C
Q (work done) = ?
Q = MC∇θ
Q = Mc (θ₂ - θ₁)
The work done in raising 1kg of water from 18°c to 98°c = Q
Q = 1000 * 4.186 * (98 - 18)
Q = 1000 * 4.186 * 80
Q = 334880J
But power = workdone / time
Time = workdone / power
Time = Q / P
Time = 334880 / 500
Time = 669.76s
T = 11.16mins
The time taken to heat 1kg of water from 18°C to 98°C is 669.76s
