Q = mcdT refers to

Correct Answer: Specific Heat formula

Explanation:

Q = mc∆T refers to Specific Heat formula.


 


When heat energy is added to a substance, the temperature will change by a certain amount.


The relationship between heat energy and temperature is different for every material, and the specific heat is a value that describes how they relate.


 


Q = mc∆T


 


Q = heat energy (Joules, J)


m = mass of a substance (kg)


c = specific heat (units J/kg∙K)


∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)
