What is the specific heat of air in imperial units?
Specific heat of air is 0.24 BTU/lb/degree F
What is the dimensional formula of energy?
the formula to find specific heat is specific heat= calories/mass X change in temperature.
200.0 Joules of heat is required to raise the temperature of an object sample by 3.00C If the specific heat of the object is 01490 JgC what is the mass of the sample in kilograms?
Use the equation for specific heat: energy = mass x (temperature difference) x (specific heat). Replace the numbers you know, and solve for mass. Since it seems that the specific heat is specified per gram, you'll initially get the mass per gram. Converting that to kilograms is quite easy.
What are the units of heat?
The Specific Heat Capacity of water is 4,184 Joules per kg per Kelvin
Why does specific heat has the same numerical value in metric and british systems?
Specific heat is dimensionless, and dimensionless units have the same value in any system. Specific heat is the ratio between two densities - that of the substance considered, and that of water. The ratio of two quantities of the same dimension will naturally be a dimensionless number.
