6. A metal block increases in temperature from 15 °C to 60 °C when supplied with 13 500 J of heat energy.
a) Calculate the heat capacity of the metal.
b) Calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal, if this sample has a mass of 0.75 kg.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

Since 1 cal = 4.19 J     the heat Q received by the metal is

Q = 13,500 J * 1 C / 4.19 J = 3,222 calories

S = ΔQ / (ΔT * ΔM)  = 3222 cal / (45 deg C / 750 gm)

S = .095 cal / gm deg C

Note that specific heat capacity for Cu is .093 cal / gm deg C
