A 10 kW drilling machine is used to drill a bore in a small aluminium block of mass 8.0 kg. How much is the rise in temperature of the block in 2.5 minutes, assuming 50% of power is used up in heating the machine itself or lost to the surroundings. Specific heat of aluminium = 0.91 J g^–1 K^–1.

Solution

Power of the drilling machine, P = 10 kW = 10 × 10³W

Mass of the aluminum block, m = 8.0 kg = 8 × 10³ g

Time for which the machine is used, t = 2.5 min = 2.5 × 60 = 150 s

Specific heat of aluminium, c = 0.91 J g^–1 K^–1

Rise in the temperature of the block after drilling = δT

Total energy of the drilling machine = Pt

= 10 × 10³× 150

= 1.5 × 10⁶ J

It is given that only 50% of the power is useful.

Therefore, in 2.5 minutes of drilling, the rise in the temperature of the block is 103°C.
