About this document
Electrical Equivalent of Heat Experiment by Xavier Le Large is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document provides instructions for determining the electrical equivalent of heat using an electrical calorimeter. [1] The calorimeter is used to heat water with an electric current from a battery for a period of time. [2] Measurements of current, voltage, mass of water, and temperature changes are then used to calculate the electrical energy input and heat energy gained by the water. [3] These values are set equal to each other to solve for the electrical equivalent of heat, which can be compared to th
