The specific heat capacity of a metal is \(160\) \(JKg^{-1}K^{-1}\). Calculate the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of \(500\ gram\) of the metal from \(125\ °C\) to \(325\ °C\).
From the given data,
Temperature of metal before energy supply (T1) \(=\) \(125\ °C\)
Temperature of metal after energy supply (T2) \(=\) \(325\ °C\)
Mass (\(m\)) \(=\) \(500\ gram\) \(=\) \(Kg\)
Specific heat Capacity (\C\)) \(=\) \(160\) \(JKg^{-1}K^{-1}\)
We know that,
Specific heat capacity is,
Formula to calculate Heat transfer (\(Q\)) is,
Substitute the values,
Amount of heat energy required \(=\)
