Two liquids X and Y having the same mass are supplied with the same quantity of heat. If the temperature rise in X is twice that of Y, the ratio of specific heat capacity of X to that of Y is
A
2:1
B
1:2
C
4:1
D
1:4
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
MC\(x_\theta\) = MC\(y_\theta\)
\(x_\theta\) = 2 \(\times y_\theta\)
MC(2\(y_\theta\)) = MC\(y_\theta\)
⇒ 2C = C
=1 : 2
