Serway & Jewett β The First Law of Thermodynamics: Problem 34.
A flow calorimeter is an apparatus used to measure the specific heat of a liquid. The technique of flow calorimetry involves measuring the temperature difference between the input and output points of a flowing stream of the liquid while energy is added by heat at a known rate. A liquid of density \(\rho\) flows through the calorimeter with volume flow rate \(R\). At steady state, a temperature difference \(\Delta T\) is established between the input and output points when energy is supplied at the rate \(P\). What is the specific heat of the liquid?
