Taking the unit of work as joule and the unit of amount of heat as kca

1.	Taking the unit of work as joule and the unit of amount of heat as kcal, the magnitude of joule’s mechanical equivalence of heat is : (A) 1 (B) 4.2 (C) 4.2 x 103. (D) 4.2 x 107.
Answer» Answer is (C) 4.2 x 10³. Joule’s mechanical equivalent of heat = work/heat = 4.2H/1cal = 4.2 x 10³ J(kcal^-1)

Answer»

Answer is (C) 4.2 x 10³.

Joule’s mechanical equivalent of heat = work/heat = 4.2H/1cal

= 4.2 x 10³ J(kcal^-1)
