When two objects at different temperatures are in thermal$$

contact with each other, they will eventually reach the same$$

temperature. Heat will flow from the warmer object to the cooler$$

one until they are at the same temperature $($temperature is$$

given in kelvin and heat is given in joules$).$ Using the$$

equation for heat absorbed or released with a temperature$$

change, Q $=$ mc $($Tf $-$ Ti$),$ where Q is the heat, m is the mass, c is$$

the specific heat, and T is the temperature $($with subscripts$$

indicating final and initial temperatures$),$ we can determine the specific heat of an object. Restart.$$
