Different amounts of thermal energy are added to each of three isolated samples A,B and C of lead. If the energy transfers are ordered as QC>QB>QA and each sample undergoes the same temperature change, which sample has the largest mass?
More information is required
The answer depends on the exact inital temperatures
Sample A
Sample C
The specific heats are identical
Sample B
The heat energy transferred are given by,
All are being lead sample, their specific heats are same, and temperature change is also same as stated by the problem.
As, , evidently,
Hence sample C has the highest mass.
