A geyser heats water flowing at a rate of 3.0 kg per minute. The geyser operates on a gas burner, and the rate of combustion of fuel is 
. If the temperature of the water entering the geyser is 
, what will be the temperature (assume all heat absorbed by the water) of the water coming out? [Heat of combustion 
, Specific heat of water 
]
