If a substance is transferred to 600J the amount of heat, it heats up by 60 degrees, determine the mass knowing that the specific heat is 400 J / kg ° С?

Task data: Q (heat transferred to the substance under consideration) = 600 J; Δt (change in temperature of the substance) = 60 ºС; C (specific heat) = 400 J / (kg * ºС).

We express the mass of the substance under consideration from the formula: Q = C * m * Δt and m = Q / (C * Δt).

Calculation: m = 600 / (400 * 60) = 0.025 kg (25 g).

Answer: We took 25 grams of the substance in question.
