A resistance heater was wound around a `5.0g` metallic cylinder. A current of `0.84 A` was passed through the heater for `20s` while the drop in voltage across the heater was `50V`. The temperature change of the cylinder was from `25^(@)C` before the heating period and `35^(@)C` at the end. If the heat loss is neglected, what is the specific heat of the cylinder metal in `cal g^(-1)K^(-1)`.
