Calculated Solution
0.05 J/(kg·K)
Step-by-Step Numerical Solution
1. Given Values:
- Mass (m): 10 kg
- Heat Energy (Q): 5 J
- Temp Change (ΔT): 10 K
2. Required Parameter:Specific Heat Capacity (c)
3. Governing Formula:
c = Q / (m × ΔT)4. Variable Substitution:
c = 5 / (10 × 10)5. Result & Interpretation:
Absorbing 5 J of thermal energy for a 10 kg mass across 10 K gives a specific heat capacity of 0.05 J/(kg·K).
