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.
What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?
Answer:
1.59 kg
Explanation:
The formula is:
<u>F = G((Mm)/r2)
</u>
F is the gravitational force between two objects,
G is the Gravitational Constant (6.674×10-11 Newtons x meters2 / kilograms2),
M is the planet's mass (kg),
m is your mass (kg), and
r is the distance (m) between the centers of the two masses (the planet's radius).
