The lower and upper fixed point of a thermometer are 30mm and 180mm respectively. Calculate the temperature in degrees Celsius when the thermometer reads 45mm
A body of mass m, has a specific heat capacity s, and a heat capacity c. If the temperature of the body changes by \(\theta^oC\), Which of the following equation is correct?
An immersion heater rated 400W, 220V is used to heat a liquid of mass 0.5kg. If the temperature of the liquid increases uniformly at the rate of 2.5oC per second, calculate the specific heat capacity of the liquid. [Assume no heat is lost]
Water falls through a height of 50m. Determine the temperature rise at the bottom of the fall. [Neglect energy losses. Specific heat capacity of water = 4200Jkg-1 K-1, g = 10ms2]
