Answer

$\Delta t=71.90s$

Work Step by Step

The mass of the plate is given by: $m=\rho V=\rho Ae$ With $\rho=2770\ kg/m³,\ A=0.03\ m²,\ e=0.005\ m$: We get to $m=0.4155\ kg$ The energy balance for the plate: $Q=\Delta U \rightarrow \dot{Q}\Delta t=mc(T_2-T_1)$ Since 90% of the iron's heat goes to the plate: $\dot{Q}_{plate}=-0.9\dot{Q}_{iron}$ With $\dot{Q}_{iron}=-1000\ W,\ c=875\ kJ/kg.K,T_2=200°C, T_1=22°C$ $\dot{Q}_{plate}=900W$ Solving for the time interval: $\Delta t=71.90s$
