The formula to calculate Specific Heat Capacity (c) is:
\[ c = \frac{Q}{M \cdot ΔTrise} \]
Where:
Specific Heat Capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount.
Heat Energy is the amount of total heat required.
Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.
Rise in Temperature is the increment in temperature of a unit mass when the heat is applied.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ c = \frac{Q}{M \cdot ΔTrise} \]
Evaluating:
\[ c = \frac{4200}{0.03545 \cdot 16} \]
The Specific Heat Capacity is 7404.79548660085 Joule per Kilogram per K.
