Question 26

Easy

The diagram shows a student's experimental setup used to determine the specific heat capacity of an aluminium block. An experimental setup showing a cylindrical 1 kg aluminium block resting on a bench. An immersion heater is inserted into one hole of the block and is connected to a power supply and a joulemeter. A thermometer is inserted into another hole in the block, with a visible air gap showing between the thermometer and the inside wall of the hole. The block has no insulation wrapped around it. State two improvements that could be made to this apparatus to obtain a more accurate value for the specific heat capacity.
