they're experts in iron metallurgy
The bantu was originated from the southern part of Africa ( round republic of Congo) , and has been the expert of utilizing iron among the ancient tribe
Mostly they use it for their Agricultural system ( such as their Irrigation system, for their agricultural tools, etc)

It is considered to be a conductor
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) m = 18 kg
b) T₁ = 285 K
c) T₂ = 318 K
d) Q = 267.3 kJ
e) S = ?
<u>2) Principles and equations</u>
The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed to increase the temperature of certain amount (gram, kg, or moles, depending on the definition or units) of the substance in 1 ° C or 1 K.
The mathematical relation between the specific heat and the heat energy absorbed is:
Where,
- Q is the heat absorbed,
- S is the specific heat, and
- ΔT is the temperature increase (T₂ - T₁)
<u>3) Solution:</u>
<u>a) Substitute the data into the equation:</u>
- 267.3 kJ = 18 kg × S × (318 K - 285 K)
<u>b) Solve for S and compute:</u>
- S = 267.3 kJ / (18 kg × 33 K) = 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K)
The options have not units, but I notice that the first answer is 1,000 times the answer I obtained, so I will make a conversion of units.
<u>c) Convert to J /( kg . k):</u>
- 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K) × 1,000 J / kJ = 450 J / (kg . K)
Now we can see that the option A is is the answer, assuming the units.
