    The document discusses determining the specific heat capacity of a liquid using an electric heater, thermometer, calorimeter and water sample. Applications include using materials with low specific heat capacity for faster heating like radiators and cooking utensils. Sea and land breezes are also explained based on differences in specific heat capacity between land and sea water.

    Specific Heat Capacity (II)


    Determination Of Specific Heat Capacity Of A Liquid
    Transformer If there is no heat loss to the surroundings,
    Switch Heat gained by water = Electric energy supplied
    Rheostat
    mcθ = VIt
    VIt
    A
    c =
    mθ
    V Switch
    m: mass of water
    Thermometer c: specific heat capacity of water
    Electric Calorimeter θ : temperature change
    heater V: voltage supplied
    Water
    Stirrer I: current supplied
    Insulation
    t: time taken

    Applications
    A radiator of Cooking utensils are made of a metal
    low specific heat which has low specific heat capacity so
    capacity is able to as to absorb
    radiate heat faster. heat faster.

    Sea breeze Land breeze


    Land has a higher specific heat capacity Land has a higher specific heat capacity
    than sea water. Land is hotter than the than sea water. Land is cooler than the
    sea in the daytime. Hot air above the sea during the night. Hot air above the
    land rises so that cooler air from the sea rises so that cooler air from the land
    sea blows towards the land. blows towards the sea.
