    Determining the specific heat capacity of water

    We wrote down the measurements displayed on the ammeter and voltmeter every minute, until the water had increased by over 20K (it took 5 minutes). The readings on each fluctuated every time, and the random errors were 0.11A and 0.1V, which ended up being quite a large % error.

    Determining the specific heat capacity of water

    Homework Statement Hi, I have an assignment to determine the specific heat capacity of water using a calorimeter, voltmeter and ammeter, where we connected the calorimeter to a 10V power pack and measured the temp of the water and the readings on the voltmeter and ammeter every minute. I ended...
