उत्तर
`s = (DeltaQ)/(mDeltaT)`
Let Q cal of heat be given to both A and B.
For body A,
`s_1 = Q/(1 xx 3) = Q/3 "cal" g^(-1@)C^(-1)`
For body B,
`s_2 = Q/(1 xx 5) = Q/5 "cal" g^(-1@)C^(-1)`
Now,
`(s_1)/(s_2) = (Q/3)/(Q/5) = 5/3`
= `s_1 = 5/3 s_2`
Thus, specific heat capacity of body A is more than body B and by a factor of `5/3`.

Indian style of cooling drinking water is to keep it in a pitcher having porous walls. Water comes to the outer surface very slowly and evaporates. Most of energy needed for evaporation is taken from the water itself and the water is cooled down. Assume that a pitcher contains 10 kg of water and 0.2 g of water comes out per second. Assuming no backward heat transfer from the atmosphere to the water, calculate the time in which the temperature decrease by 5°C. Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J kg−1 °C−1 and latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.27 × 106 J kg−1.

If heat is exchanged between a hot and cold object, the temperature of the cold object goes on increasing due to gain of energy and the temperature of the hot object goes on decreasing due to loss of energy. The change in temperature continues till the temperatures of both objects attain the same value. In this process, the cold object gains heat energy and the hot object loses heat energy. If the system of both the objects is isolated from the environment by keeping it inside a heat-resistant box then no energy can flow from inside the box or come into the box. In this situation, we get the following principle.
Heat energy lost by the hot object = Heat energy gained by the cold object. This is called the ‘Principle of heat exchange’.
