Answer:
c. is more than that of the fluid.
Explanation:
This problem is based on the conservation of energy and the concept of thermal equilibrium
m= mass
s= specific heat
\DeltaT=change in temperature
let s1= specific heat of solid and s2= specific heat of liquid
then
Heat lost by solid=
Heat gained by fluid=
Now heat gained = heat lost
therefore,
1000 S_2=800 S_1
S_1=1.25 S_2
so the specific heat of solid is more than that of the fluid.
