Explanation:
The specific heat capacity of a material is given by:
where
Q is the amount of heat supplied to the object
m is the mass of the object
is the increase in temperature of the object
For the object in this problem, we have
m = 117 g is the mass
Q = 1200 J is the heat supplied
is the increase in temperature
Substituting into the formula, we find the specific heat:
