Question

A potato and raisins salad has been warmed up to a temperature of 80∘C and let it stand for three minutes. Then one tries a bite. 1) Would the potatoes and raisins be equally warm? Potatoes have a specific heat of 3430 J/(kg⋅∘C). Raisins have a specific heat of 1630 J/(kg⋅∘C).

    Answer:

    No. Potatoes will be warmer.

    Explanation:

    Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

    where,

    Q = heat taken

    m = mass of substance

    c = specific heat of substance = ?

    ΔT = change in temperature

    As we are given that the potatoes have a specific heat of 3430 J/(kg⋅∘C) and raisins have a specific heat of  1630 J/(kg⋅∘C). It implies that substance take more heat when higher the value of specific heat i.e more warmer will be the substance. Thus, the potatoes will be more warmer as compared to raisins.

    Therefore, No. Potatoes will be warmer.
