Avanadium bolt gives up 1124 j of energy as its temperature drops 25 k if the bolts mass is 93 g what is its specific heat

0.483 J/(gK)

Explanation:

When a sample of a material of mass m gives off an amount of energy Q, the temperature of the material decreases by , according to the equation :

where   is the specific heat capacity of the material.

In this problem, we have:

m = 93 g is the mass of the vanadium bolt

is the amount of energy given off by the vanadium bolt

is the change in temperature of the vanadium

Solving the equation for , we find the specific heat capacity of vanadium:

80cm/s.

24cm/s.

53.3cm/s.
