Answer:
Cp = 397 [J/kg*K]
Explanation:
By means of the energy equation for heat transfer in substances and objects, we can calculate the specific heat. In this way, we have the following equation.
[tex]Q=m*C_{p}*DT[/tex]
where:
Dt = temperature change = 10 [K]
m = mass = 0.5 [kg]
Q = heat = 1985 [J]
Cp = specific heat [J/kg*K]
Now replacing:
[tex]1985=0.5*C_{p}*10\\C_{p}=\frac{1985}{0.5*10}\\C_{p}=397[\frac{J}{kg*K} ][/tex]
