Page 2: Work Done and Specific Heat Capacity
This page covers the relationship between work done and energy transfer, along with detailed explanations of specific heat capacity. Work is done when a force causes object displacement, and this work equals energy transferred between forms.
Example: A 2kg mass of water requires twice as much energy to increase its temperature compared to 1kg of water due to having twice the number of particles.
Definition: Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of a substance, calculated using ΔE = m × c × ΔΘ.
Highlight: Work done against friction causes temperature increases in objects due to energy transfer.
