Answer: The correct answer is kelvin.
Explanation:
The expression for the conversion of degree Celsius to Kelvin is as follows:
K= 273 + degree Celsius
The expression for the conversion of degree Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows:
The freezing point of water on Celsius degree is zero degree Celsius. The freezing point on kelvin scale is 273.15 K.
The boiling point of water on Celsius degree is 100 degree Celsius. The boiling point on kelvin scale is 373.15 K. The boiling point on Fahrenheit scale is 373.15 K.
Therefore, Kelvin scale has the highest value for the boiling point of water.
Answer:
Explanation:
When a substance is supplied with a certain amount of heat energy, the temperature of the substance increases according to the equation
where
m is the mass of the substance
Q is the amount of energy supplied
C is the specific heat of the substance
is the temperature change
In this problem:
Q = 758 J is the energy supplied
m = 0.750 kg is the mass of the sample
is the specific heat of copper
Re-arranging the equation, we can find the increase in temperature:
