calculate the amount of heat (in btu) needed to raise the temp of 2.5lb of glass from 45°f to 350°f. the specific heat capacity of glass is 0.187Btu/lb°f
So you would use the equation Q=cmΔT, where c is the specific heat, m is the mass, and ΔT is change in temperature. Q, or heat added, would equal (0.187)(2.5)(350-45), which simplifies to 142.5875 btu.
