Specific Heat of Fluids
The relation between the nature of the fluid and its specific heat capacity.
Part of the course: Thermal Physics β Heat, Matter & Materials
Mission
The relation between the nature of the fluid and its specific heat capacity.
Variables
What you change
- The liquid
What you measure
- Liquid temperature
What you keep constant
- Room temperature
- Liquid volume
- The amount of energy used
Equations
m = Mass of vinegar / milk
C = Specific heat of vinegar / milk
ΞT = Change in temperature for vinegar / milk
T_i = Temperature of vinegar / milk at room temperature
T_f = Temperature of vinegar / milk after heating
Q = Amount of heat
P = Power of kettle
t = Time of heating
Q = m * C * ΞT
P (watt) * t (s) = 1 (kg) * C * (T_f - T_i)
What You'll Need
- Breadboard 400 Tie Point
- Arduino Uno
- I2C LCD
