A thermometer of mass 0.055 kg and heat capacity 46.1 J/K reads 15.0ºC. It is then completely immersed in 0.300 kg of water and it comes to the same final temperature as water. If the thermometer reads 44.4ºC, what was the temperature of the water before insertion of the thermometer, neglecting other heat losses?
