B1 practical: Specific heat capacity of water (electric kettle)
In this experiment a temperature sensor is used to measure the rate of temperature rise of a known mass of water heated in an electric kettle. This method is far from ideal so think how you could modify the method to make it more accurate. Before performing this experiment you will need to be familiar with using the datalogger software for recording data and drawing graphs. The temperature change of the water, ΔT is...
