Doggo Quiz: Calculation of HEAT CAPACITY and SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY

Systematic and reiterative Q&As to practice and strengthen your skills

Recall: formula for HEAT CAPACITY and SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY

Pt = Q = mcΔT = CΔT

where

unit
Q = Heat energy Joule (J)
C = HEAT CAPACITY Joule per degree Celsius (J °C-1) ← CAPITAL letter C for HEAT CAPACITY
m = Mass Kilogram (kg)
c = SPECIFC HEAT CAPACITY Joule per degree Celsius per kilogram (J °C-1 kg-1) ← small letter c for SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY
ΔT = Temperature Change °C
P = Power Joule per second (J s-1) or Watt (W)
t = time second (s)
