Question

2) What does the specific heat capacity of a material tell you about how easy it is to heat up
that material

Answer 1

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

In order to understand in a better way what the specific heat is, we must analyze the units of measurement of this scalar magnitude.

$[\frac{kJ}{kg*C} ]$ or [kJ/kg*°C]

For example for water Cp = 4.1 [kJ/kg*°C]

That is, to increase the temperature by one degree celsius in one kilogram of water, 4.14[kJ] of energy is required.
