A metal has a specific heat capacity of 360J/(kg°C).
An object made of this metal has a mass of 2.0kg.
What is the thermal capacity (heat capacity) of the object?

Answer 1

Answer:

Thermal capacity of the object = 720 j/°C

Explanation:

Given:

Specific heat capacity of metal = 360J/(kg°C)

Mass of given object = 2 kg

Find:

Thermal capacity of the object

Computation:

Thermal capacity = Specific heat x Mass

Thermal capacity of the object = Specific heat capacity of metal x Mass of given object

Thermal capacity of the object = 360 x 2

Thermal capacity of the object = 720 j/°C
