Question

If the amount of heat, Q, required to raise the temperature of 2 kg of a material by 1 C is 7400J. Calculate the specific heat C of the material

Answer 1

If the amount of heat, Q, required to raise the temperature of 2 kg of a material by 1 C is 7400J. Calculate the specific heat C of the material 

The correct answer: C= 3700 J/kg 

:The Explanation

 C=Q/(m∆T) = 7400/(2×1) = 3700 J/kg
