The volume/(SURFACE area) of the room, water A and water B. $$ 2. The iNside and OUTside temperatures of the room, and A & B. $$ 3. The SPECiFiC-heat-CAPACiTY of the iNside & OUTside AMBiENT. $$ 4. The RATE of heat-GAiN & the RATE of heat-LOSS, of the room. $$ $$ Then with THiS you can calculate if A or B reaches 295K FiRST. $$ [An ANSWER depends on the RATE-of-thermal-CHANGE in the room]. $$ $$ Brian A M Stuckless.
