A solid of \(2 \mathrm{~kg}\) mass absorbs \(50 \mathrm{~kJ}\) when its temperature is raised from \(20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(70^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The specific heat capacity of this solid in unit of \(\mathrm{J} / \mathrm{kg}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is

  1. A 500
  2. B 1000
  3. C 1500
  4. D 750
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 500

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Heat absorbed by a solid is given by \(\Delta Q=m s \Delta T\) where, \(s=\) specific heat of solid. \(\therefore \quad s=\frac{\Delta Q}{m \cdot \Delta T}=\frac{50 \times 1000}{2 \times\left(70^{\circ}-20^{\circ}\right) \mathrm{C}}\)…
