    If temperature scale is changed from °C to °F, the numerical value of specific heat will [CPMT 1984]

    A)            Increases                               

    B)            Decreased

    C)            Remains unchanged         

    D)            None of the above

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               \[Q=m.c.\Delta \theta \] Þ \[c=\frac{Q}{m.\Delta \theta }\] In temperature measurement scale \[\Delta T{}^\circ F>\Delta T{}^\circ C\] so \[{{S}_{{}^\circ F}}<{{S}_{{}^\circ C}}\].
