Specific Heat Capacity

20 November 2009

10:23

Adding the same amount of heat energy (in J) to different material causes a different temperature rise (degrees C)

The heat capacity of a substance = the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of substance by 1 (degree C) or (1K)

Conclusion and Evaluation

CE1
- Correct answer
- Systematic / random error
- Your opinion for what the main cause of the uncertainty was.

CE2
- GO THROUGH EXPERIMENT
- GO THROUGH ALL THE UNCERTAINITIES IN EXPERIMENT
- IF YOU CANT TALK ABOUT UNCERTAINTY - FOR INSTANCE HEAT LOSS IN "SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY
FOR IRON" THEN SAY IT WILL JUST MAKE
- AND DO IN DECREASING ORDER OF IMPORTANCE
- All errors in one direction - means it is systematic

CE3
Suggest improvements
Do NOT say more accurate result
Use a long thermometer with smaller graduation
Light gates - for timing and position accurately
Target each weakness identified
