A pot containing 3 liters of water, initially at 20 degrees
celcius, is heated with a 400 W heater. Assuming no heat is lost to
the surroundings and all heat transfers to the pot, for how much
time must you watch the water before it reaches its vaporization
temperature of 100 degrees Celcius? [The specific heat capacity of
water is 4.2x10^3 J/(degrees Celcius kg)), and water has density of
1 kg/L.]
