Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the equation:

Q = mcΔT

where Q is the amount of heat energy supplied, m is the mass of the iron, c is the specific heat capacity of iron, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Substituting the given values, we get:

250000 J = (10 kg) x (500 J/kg°C) x (f - 15°C)

where f is the final temperature we want to find.

Simplifying and solving for f, we get:

f = 250000 J / (10 kg x 500 J/kg°C) + 15°C

f= 50°C + 15°C

f = 65°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the iron is 65°C.
