Answer:

800 J/kg/C

Explanation:

Specific Heat Capacity can be calculated using the formula:

c = Q/mT

Where c is the specific heat capacity in J/Kg/C

Q is the amount of energy supplied in J

m is the mass of object in kg

T is the change in Temperature in C.

Hence by applying this formula, we get:

c = (1.6 × 10^5)/(10)(34 - 14)

c = 800 J/kg/C

Hence, Specific Heat Capacity of Sand is 800 J/kg/C
