Question

equal heat is given to two object a and b mass 1g temperature of a increase by 3c and b by 5c which object has more specific heat? and by which factor​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the amount of the Heat energy transferred to both the objects be Q.

For the Object A,

Mass = 1 g.

Rise in temperature = 3 °C

∵ Specific Heat Capacity = Heat Taken/Mass × Rise in temperature.

cₐ = Q/1 × 3

cₐ = Q/3

Q = 3 cₐ

For the Object B,

Mass = 1 g.

Rise in temperature = 5 °C.

Specific Heat capacity = Q/1 × 5

C_xC

x

= Q/5

∴ Q = 5 cₓ

∴ 3 cₐ = 5 cₓ

∴ cₐ = 5/3 × cₓ

∵ cₐ > C_bC

b

Hence, the Specific heat capacity of the Object is more than the B.
