$A$ metal cube absorbs $2100.0 \ J$ of heat when its temperature is raised by $2^{\circ} C$. If the specific heat of the metal is $900 \ J \ kg^{-1} K^{-1}$, then the mass of the cube is (in $kg$)

Define specific heat capacity and write its $SI$ unit.

Whose specific heat is high? Sand or water?

The specific heat capacity of a substance is temperature dependent and is given by the formula $C = kT$,where $k$ is a constant of suitable dimensions in $SI$ units,and $T$ is the absolute temperature. If the heat required to raise the temperature of $1 \ kg$ of the substance from $-73^{\circ} C$ to $27^{\circ} C$ is $nk$,the value of $n$ is. . . . . . [Given: $0 \ K = -273^{\circ} C$.]
