To find M (mass), we measure the mass using a top-pan balance.

change in thermal energy = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change

\Delta E_{t}=m \times c \times \Delta \Theta

This is when:

  • change in thermal energy (ΔEt) is measured in joules (J)
  • mass (m) is measured in kilograms (kg)
