Question 33

Four different metal blocks, P, Q, R, and S, are heated in turn by the same electrical heater for the exact same duration under identical conditions. The temperature rise recorded for each block is as follows: Block P: 12.0∘C12.0^\circ\text{C}12.0∘C, Block Q: 4.0∘C4.0^\circ\text{C}4.0∘C, Block R: 15.0∘C15.0^\circ\text{C}15.0∘C, Block S: 8.0∘C8.0^\circ\text{C}8.0∘C.
