The complete sentence is:
A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.
In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation
where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and 
is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
When Jane is sliding down a slide, she is demonstrating translational motion.
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of water = 25 kg
Temperature = 23°C
Weight of mass = 32 kg
Distance = 5 m
(a). We need to calculate the amount of work done on the water
Using formula of work done
The amount of work done on the water is 1568 J.
(b). We need to calculate the internal-energy change of the water
Using formula of internal energy
The change in internal energy of the water equal to the amount of the work done on the water.
The change in internal energy is 1568 J.
(c). We need to calculate the final temperature of the water
Using formula of the change internal energy
The final temperature of the water is 23.01°C.
(d). The amount of heat removed from the water to return it to it initial temperature is the change in internal energy.
The amount of heat is 1568 J.
Hence, This is the required solution.
In energy point of view, the larger stone had more potential energy before dropping. impacting the water, the larger one, having more kinetic energy which changed from potential energy, tranfered energy to the water and formed wave. the amplitude of the wave indicate the energy of the wave. more energy more amplitude.
