Find thermal capacity for a copper block...

Find thermal capacity for a copper block of mass 0.2 kg, if specific heat capacity of copper is 290 J/kg `""^(@)C`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

given
` m= 0.2 kg `
` s = 290 j // kg ^@ C`
thermal capacity `= mxx s = 0.2 kg xx 290 j // kg ^@ C `
` = 58 J//^@ C`
