ICSE Class 10 Physics 2023 Solved Paper

Thermal capacities of substances A and B are same. If mass of A is more than mass of B then:

Question : 35

Total: 76

Which substance will have more specific heat capacity?

Solution:

We know,
Thermal capacity = mass × specific heat capacity
∴ Specific heat capacity
=‌

‌ Thermal capacity ‌

‌ mass ‌

∵ Thermal capacities of A and B are same.
∴ Specific heat capacity ∝‌

‌ mass ‌

∵ Mass of B is less than mass of A.
∵ So, Specific heat capacity of B will be more.
