Question: If temperature scale is changed from °C to °F, the numerical value of specific heat will [CPMT 1984]
Options:
A) Increases in temperature
B) Decreased.
C) Remains unchanged
D) None of the above
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
$ Q=m.c.\Delta \theta $ Þ $ c=\frac{Q}{m.\Delta \theta } $ In temperature measurement scale $ \Delta T{}^\circ F>\Delta T{}^\circ C $ so $ {S_{{}^\circ C}}<{S_{{}^\circ F}} $ .
