Question

. If 24OO J of energy is used to heat up a 3 kg copper block from 20 0C to 220 C. What are the specific heat capacity of copper and the heat capacity of the copper block?

Answer 1

Explanation:

heat given = mc(∆T)

so 2400 = 3c(220-200)

so, we get c = specific heat capacity of copper block= 2400/60= 40

and heat capacity formula = mc = 3*40= 120
