New cards

specific heat capacity definition

Energy needed to raise the temperature of 1kg of a material by 1K/ 1 degree c without a change of state

2
New cards

Calculating energy needed

Q = mc delta theta

3
New cards

Using power

P = Q/t

Q=Pt

4
New cards

Conservation of energy calculations

Use Q equation

Set equal to each other

Be careful with - / + T

5
New cards

definition for specific latent heat of fusion?

Energy required to change 1kg of a substance from solid to liquid without a change in temperature

6
New cards

definition for specific latent heat of vaporisation?

Energy required to change 1kg of a substance from liquid to a gas without a change in temperature

7
New cards

Calculating energy needed to change state of an object

Q=ml

l = latent heat
