Gce Model Questions Vol1 2024 Physics Question 20
Practice objective / multiple choice question 20 from the 2024 Gce Model Questions Vol1 Physics examination.
A metal rod of mass \(150\;\text{g}\) is heated to \(120^{\circ}\text{C}\) and then placed into an insulated container that holds \(200\;\text{g}\) of water at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\). The container itself has a heat capacity of \(50\;\text{J\,°C}^{-1}\) and is initially at \(20^{\circ}\text{C}\). After the system reaches thermal equilibrium the temperature is \(30^{\circ}\text{C}\). Assuming no heat loss to the surroundings, determine the specific heat capacity of the metal rod (in \(\text{J\,g}^{-1}\text{°C}^{-1}\), to two decimal places).
