The question in choice-C is the correct answer to your question.
(Is this confusing ?)
Answer:
c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity:
"Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance per unit of mass. The specific heat capacity of a material is a physical property."
Use this equation:
mcΔT = ( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT'
Rearranging the equation to find the specific heat (c) you get this:
c = (( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT') / (mΔT)
c = (( 0.285 (4186) + (0.15)(900)) (32 -25.1)) / ((0.125) (95 - 32))
c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.
Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)
4.2 liters..... there are 1,000 mL in a liter and there is a total of 4200 mL in this case which is divided by 1000 which gives you 4.2 liters.
