KillGorack / Physics 2010 / A piece of copper of mass 100 g is being drilled through with a 1 /2 " electric drill. The drill operates at 40.0 W and takes 30.0 s to bore through the copper. If all the energy from the drill heats the copper, find the copper's increase in temperature. ccopper = 387 J/kg×°C.

The following physics responses are provided by a student and, as such, should be considered in that context. While every effort is made for accuracy, absolute correctness cannot be fully guaranteed.
