A rock of mass 0.19 kg falls from restfrom a height of 12 m into a pail containing 0.30 kg of water. Therock and water have the same initial temperature. The specific heatcapacity of the rock is 1820 J/(kg·C°). Ignore the heatabsorbed by the pail itself, and determine the rise in the temperature of the rock and water.
