Question

explain the term in the equation Q=ms delta t

Answer 1

Q = heat
m = mass
s = specific heat
triangle = delta [which means change ]
t = temperature
hope it helps you

Answer 2

Q is the heat, m is the mass, s is the specific heat and ∆T is the temperature change.

• Q=ms∆T is the equation of specific heat. Each term in the equation has a different significance.
• Q is defined as the amount of heat in unit Joule.
• m is the mass in unit gram.
• s is the specific heat expressed in the unit joule per gram degree Celsius.
• ∆t is the change in temperature in degrees Celsius.
