Energy to raise 1 kg by 1°C

What are the units for specific heat capacity?

J/kg°C

What does a high specific heat capacity mean?

More thermal energy needed to raise temp

Which formula calculates thermal energy change?

ΔE=m×c×Δθ\Delta E = m \times c \times \Delta\theta

84,000 J

Which equipment measures current in the practical?

Ammeter

Why is insulation used around the block?

To minimize heat loss

Which formula calculates power in the experiment?

P=V×IP = V \times I
