    This document contains a physics lesson on heat capacity and specific heat. It includes questions to test understanding of key concepts: 1) Specific heat capacity is a property of a substance that represents the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of the substance by 1°C. It depends on the type of substance but not the mass. 2) Questions assess understanding that heat capacity depends on mass and type of material, and that heat transfer results in temperature change proportional to the heat amount and inversely to mass. 3) Calculations are provided to determine heat transfer for given mass and temperature changes using the specific heat capacities of water and helium. Work is also considered for a process involving volume change
