Mass of a bronze block is 1 kg. To raise the temperature of this block from 25°0 to 125°0, heat required is 40000 J. Find the specific heat of the block in J/kg`""^(@)`C.

A

200

B

500

C

600

D

400

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
According to formula, `Q = m xx s xx Delta t`
As, `Delta t = 125 - 25`
`= 100`
`rArr " " s = (40000)/( 1 xx 100)`
`= 400 J/kg""^(@)`C
