Water Equivalent Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Water equivalent = Mass of Water*Specific Heat
s = Mw*c
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Water equivalent - (Measured in Kilogram) - Water equivalent of a substance is the amount of water that would absorb the same amount of heat as the substance per degree rise in temperature.
Mass of Water - (Measured in Kilogram) - Mass of water is the total mass of water.
Specific Heat - (Measured in Joule per Kilogram per K) - The Specific Heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Mass of Water: 0.05 Kilogram --> 0.05 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Specific Heat: 120 Joule per Kilogram per K --> 120 Joule per Kilogram per K No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
s = Mw*c --> 0.05*120
Evaluating ... ...
s = 6
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
6 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
6 Kilogram <-- Water equivalent
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
