SHC
Cards (9)
- specific heat capacity = SHC
- SHC = energy needed to increase a 1kg mass objects temp by 1°C
- all materials = different SHC values
- metals heat up quickly -> low SHC -> don't need much energy to heat up
- waters have higher SHC -> lots of energy needed to heat up
- Q = mcΔθ
- c = SHC
- Δ( change) θ = change in temperature
- SHC =J/kg°C
