If 2050 j of heat are added to a 150 g object its temperature increases by 15°c. (a) what is the heat capacity of this object? (b) what is the object's specific heat?

When an object gets heated by a temperature ΔT energy needed, E = mcΔT

Here energy is given E = 2050 J

Mass of object = 150 g

Change in temperature ΔT  = 15 = 15 K

a) Heat capacity of an object equal to the ratio of the heat added to (or removed from) an object to the resulting temperature change.

  So heat capacity = E/ΔT = 2050/15 = 136.67 J/K

b) We have E = mcΔT

                    c =

 So object's specific heat = 911.11 J/kgK

concave lenses are used here. they spread the light out before it reaches the convex lens in the eye, therefore letting the image focus directly on the retina. hyperopia is known to you probably as farsightedness.

the largest known star in the universe is uy scuti, a hypergiant with a radius around 1,700 times larger than the
