Q55NEET 1990 · AIPMTEasy

Calorimetry, Latent Heat & Mechanical Equivalent of Heat

Thermal capacity of 40 g of aluminium (s=0.2 cal/g Ks = 0.2\text{ cal/g K}) is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. C=ms=40×0.2=8C = ms = 40 \times 0.2 = 8 cal/K
  2. 8×4.2=33.68 \times 4.2 = 33.6 J/K
  3. So the answer is (d).
