Q

How is specific heat capacity (C) calculated? using electrical method

A

C = IVt / mΔT

17
Q

What improves the thermal contact between the thermometer and the metal?

A

A small amount of water or oil in the thermometer hole

18
Q

What is the formula to calculate the electrical energy supplied to a heater?

A

Electrical energy = heater current I x heater pd V x heating time t

19
Q

how do you measure specific heat capacity of a liquid

A

add a known mass of liquid into a calorimeter of down mass and known specific heat capacity

a 12 v electrical heater is placed within the liquid and heat it directly

a thermometer is inserted into the liquid to measure temp rise

20
Q

What is the equation for the energy needed to heat a liquid?

A

Energy needed = mass of liquid (m) × specific heat capacity (c) × temperature rise (ΔT)

21
Q

what Is electrical energy supplied equal to

22
Q

What is the formula to calculate the energy needed to heat the calorimeter?

A

Energy = mass of calorimeter (mcal) x specific heat capacity of calorimeter (cal) x temperature rise (ΔT)

This formula assumes no heat loss to the surroundings.

23
Q

what is ivt of liquid experiment equal to

A

mc delta t +mcal Ccal delat t

24
Q

example of continuous flow heating

A

electrical shower
water passes through copper coils heated by an electrical heater.

the water is hotter at the outlet than inlet

25
the electrical energy supplied per second by continuous flow heating =
iv = mc delta T/t same for liquid in solar panel heating
