A 5.0-m-diameter garden pond is 30 cm deep. Solar energy is incident on the pond at an average rate of \(400\text{ W/m}^2\). If the water absorbs all the solar energy and does not exchange energy with its surroundings, how many hours will it take to warm from \(15^\circ\text{C}\) to \(25^\circ\text{C}\)?
