Question : 35 of 76
Marks: +1, -0
Which substance will have more specific heat capacity?
Solution:  
We know,
Thermal capacity == mass ×\times specific heat capacity
\therefore Specific heat capacity
=Thermal capacitymass= \frac{\text{Thermal capacity}}{\text{mass}}
\because Thermal capacities of A and B are same.
\therefore Specific heat capacity 1mass\propto \frac{1}{\text{mass}}
\because Mass of B is less than mass of A.
\because So, Specific heat capacity of BB will be more.
