Two different liquids, Liquid A and Liquid B, of equal mass are placed in identical beakers. Liquid A is heated for 180 s180\text{ s}180 s and Liquid B is heated for 60 s60\text{ s}60 s by heaters of the same constant power. The temperature of both liquids increases by the same amount.
Determine the ratio of the thermal capacity of Liquid A to the thermal capacity of Liquid B, CACB\frac{C_A}{C_B}CBCA.
Which liquid has the higher specific heat capacity?
