A student learning about heat transfer makes the claim shown:

"Some metals change temperature more rapidly than other metals."



The student proposes to test the claim in the laboratory by using metal rods made of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and Aluminum (Al). In addition to the metal rods, which pieces of equipment would be useful for investigating the claim?

Group of answer choices

prism, heat lamp, screen, meterstick

beaker, digital scale, stopwatch, clamps

litmus paper, beaker, pan balance, battery

hot water, pan to hold water, stopwatch, thermometer


Sagot :

Hot water, pan to hold water, stopwatch and thermometer are the pieces of equipment which would be useful for investigating the claim.

What is Temperature?

This is the degree of hotness or coldness of a substance and it is measured with the use of the thermometer.

Since temperature is involved, the thermometer and heat source are important thereby making option D the most appropriate choice.

Option D

Well the raising speed of temparature of a metal is dependent upon its specific heat capacity .

If specific heat capacity is more then the water will boil faster .

From stopwatch we can determine how fast the water boils in identical pans .

Which will help in determining specific heat capacity
