Question

a)What is mean by specific heat capacity of the substance A is 910 J/kg degree celcius

b)
What is meant by specific heat capacity of
Substance Specific heat capacity
the substance A is 910 J/kg°C ?
A
910 J/kg°C
Which one of the given substances will gain
B
more temperature while heating equal mass of
380 J/kg°C
all the three substances with equal
C
470 J/kg°C
amount of heat? Give reason.
Which will go down more in depth while keeping equal mass at the three substances heated
for the same temperature of 100°C and kept on a wax slab, why?
​

Answer 1

Explanation:

specific haet capacity is numerically equal to the amount of heat required to raised the unit temperature of unit mass of a substance.

heat capacity means is numerically equal to the amount of heat required to raised the temperature of whole substance.

A requires for unit change in temperature,910J

B requires for unit change in temperature ,380J

C requires for unit change in temperature,470J

FOR GIVEN EQUAL MASS, B IS A SUBSTANCE WHOSE TEMPERATURE IS MORE AS COMPARED TO BOTH BY GIVING EQUAL HEAT. BECAUSE ITS SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY IS LOW AS COMPARED TO OTHERS.
