Specific heat capacity Flashcards
1
Q
What is the nervy transfer equation?
A
mass x specific heat capacity x temp difference
2
Q
A block is warmed by 10 degrees. A block has a mass of 10kg. The specific heat capacity is 800J/kg. calculate the energy transferred.
A
10 x 10 x 800 = 80000J
3
Q
A room is dated to 18-23 degrees. The specific heat capacity is 2100J/Kg the mass is 10kg. calculate the energy transferred.
A
23-18=5
5 x 2100 x 10= 105000J
4
