Tia learns that the temperature of rock in Earth's mantle varies depending on its location. Rock located close to the lithosphere is about 1,000 °C, and rock located close to the outer core is about
3,700 °C.
Tia uses the formula shown below to calculate the amount of heat that needs to be added to a 5-9
piece of rock in order to raise its temperature from 1,000 °C to 3,700 °C. She uses 0.79 J/g °C for
the specific heat of the rock
