AQA GCSE Physics - 2.4 Specific heat
capacity
What is specific heat capacity? - ANS-The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of
1kg of a substance by 1 degree Celsius

equation for specific heat capacity - ANS-energy transferred = Specific Heat Capacity x mass x
change in temperature
c= ΔE/ mΔθ

what does mass of an object have to do with the rate at which an objects temp increases when
it is heated? - ANS-greater the mass the more slowly temp increases when heated

specific heat capacity of water - ANS-4200 J/KgC

specific heat capacity of oil - ANS-2100 J/KgC

specific heat capacity aluminium - ANS-900 J/KgC

specific heat capacity iron - ANS-390 J/KgC

specific heat capacity copper - ANS-386 J/kgC

specific heat capacity lead - ANS-130 J/KgC

specific heat capacity concrete - ANS-850 J/KgC
