Physics 2023 JAMB Past Questions - Question 23: A given quantity of heat increases the temperature of 150grams of water from 9°C to 15°C and increases the. temperature of an equal volume of oil weighing 1000rams from 9°C to 25°C. The ratio of the specific heat of oil to that of water is
A:
B:
C:
D:
Correct Answer
B
Explanation
Heat lost = heat gained
moCoθ?o = mwCwθ?w
100 x Co x (25 - 9) = 150 x Cw x (15 - 9)
CwCw???? = 0.56
