the specific heat (cp or cv) can also be understood as a "capacity or ability of a given material to store "heat". In this way, we can say that: 1- the greater the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material.2- the higher the specific heat, the lower the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material3- the lower the specific heat, the greater the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material4- the lower the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change5-the higher the specific heat, the amount of "heat" needed to cause an increase or decrease in temperature per unit mass of the material does not change choose only one of the above alternatives as correct

A manometer consists of a U-shaped tube containing a liquid. One side is connected to the apparatus and the other is open to the atmosphere. The pressure p inside the apparatus is given p = pex + ρgh, where pex is the external pressure, ρ is the mass density of the liquid in the tube, g = 9.806 m s−2 is the acceleration of free fall, and h is the difference in heights of the liquid in the two sides of the tube. (The quantity ρgh is the hydrostatic pressure exerted by a column of liquid.) (i) Suppose the liquid in a manometer is mercury, the external pressure is 760 Torr, and the open side is 10.0 cm higher than the side connected to the apparatus. What is the pressure in the apparatus? The mass density of mercury at 25 °C is 13.55 g cm−3.
