When an object is heated or cooled, its temperature change, \(\Delta T\), depends on the mass of the object ... for each metal is different. The specific heat capacity, \(c\), is the heat energy ...

An electric heater supplies 13500 joules of heat energy to a metal block of mass \(0.5kg\). The temperature of the block rises from \(20^{\circ}C\) to \(80^{\circ}C\) during the heating process.

When a mass of material adsorbs heat energy its temperature increases. The temperature rise DT is related to the heat transfer DQ through the Heat Capacity C: ...

The temperature change in each amount of water is measured and specific heats can be determined ... Place equal masses of lead and aluminum in the boiling water and allow them to heat for several ...
