20. Heat and Temperature / Specific Heat & Temperature Changes / Problem 4

While racing, two RC bikes lose control and collide head-on, each traveling at 35 km/h. Following the impact, their kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy. Determine the rise in temperature for each RC bike, considering that their specific heat is similar to that of plastic,  which is approximately 2.1 J/g°C.
