Specific Heat Capacity and Latent Heat Questions – A2 Physics 1. An electrical heater is used to heat a 1.0 kg block of metal, which is well lagged. The table shows how the temperature of the block increased with time. temp/°C 20.1 23.0 26.9 30.0 33.1 36.9 time/s 0 60 120 180 240 300 (a) Plot a graph of temperature against time on the graph paper provided.  adequate scale (1 mark) – filling the paper  points plotted correctly (1 mark)  best fit line (at least a point to right and left of line) (1 mark) (3) (b) Determine the gradient of the graph. Clearly marked, use of triangle minimum size 8cm (1 mark) gradient = 0.056 0.004 (°C/s) (1 mark) (2) (c) The heater provides thermal energy at the rate of 48 W. Use your value for the gradient of the graph to determine a value for the specific heat capacity of the metal in the block. mcΔθ = Q = Pt mc(Δθ/t) = P c = P/(m x gradient of the graph) = 48/0.056 –1 –1 –1 –1 c = 860 60 J kg K (or J kg °C ) (1 mark) (2) (d) The heater in part (c) is placed in some crushed ice that has
