1. Use q = mass x specific heat x delta T. That explains it all. Reason throught it. If you still need help let me suggest you substitute 0.1 for specific heat along with some number for mass and delta T and solve for T. Then substitute 5 for specific heat and the same numbers for mass and delta T and SEE FOR YOURSELF what happens to q.
2. Use the answer you found for #1 to answer #2.
1. The temperature of two substances with the same mass increases by 20 degrees Celsius. Which absorbs the most energy, the substance with the higher or lower specific heat? Explain
2. The human body is approximately 60% water. Explain how this high percentage of water helps the body handle rapid changes in outside temperature.
