Equal heat is given to two objects A and B of mass 1g. The temperature of A increases by ` 3^(@)C` and that of B by ` 5^(@)C`. Which object has more specific heat? And by what factor ?

Explanation

Data ` : m= 1g , Delta T_(1) = 3^(@) C , Delta T_(2) = 5^(@) C, Q ` same
Here, `Q = mc_(1) Delta T_(1) = mc_(2) Delta T_(2)`
`:. ( c_(1))/( c_(2))= ( Delta T_(2))/( Delta T_(1))= ( 5^(@)C )/( 3^(@) C ) =(5)/(3)`
Thus, `c_(1) gt c_(2)`
The specific heat of A is more than that of B and `("specific heat of A ")/("specific heat of B")= (5)/(3)`
