What is meant by specific heat capacity?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Specific heat capacity of a body can be defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of that body by 1°C (or 1 K).
It is given as:
s = `(Delta Q)/(DeltaT xx m)`
where,
ΔQ = Amount of heat energy supplied
ΔT = Rise in temperature
m = Mass of the body
