When an object absorbs an amount of energy equal to Q, its temperature raises by 
following the formula
where m is the mass of the object and
is the specific heat capacity of the material.
In our problem, we have
, 
and 
, so we can re-arrange the formula and substitute the numbers to find the specific heat capacity of the metal:
where m is the mass of the object and
In our problem, we have
