The park engineers decided that a large, warm water, fish tank would be a great
attraction at the park's entrance. Based on the specific heats of plastic and glass,
which material would best enable the water to be warmed by the sun? Explain your
choice. How many times more energy would need to be transferred to the plastic for
to get as warm as the glass? Assume that the mass and the change in temperature
are the same for both materials.
