A simple calorimeter facilitating quick experimental determination of the specific heat capacity of different metals. Comprises cylindrical metal block, of equal mass adjusted to 1kg ±2%. Each metal block is drilled with two holes, a large central hole, about 12.5mm diameter to accept special immersion heater and a smaller hole about 7.5mm diameter, to accept thermometer or temperature sensor.
