The amount of heat energy $Q$, used to heat up a substance depends on its mass $m$, its specific heat capacity $(s)$ and the change in temperature $\Delta T$ of the substance. Using dimensional method, find the expression for $s$ is (Given that $\left.[s]=\left[ L ^2 T ^{-2} K ^{-1}\right]\right)$ is
  • A$Q m \Delta T$
  • B$\frac{Q}{m \Delta T}$
  • C$\frac{Q m}{\Delta T}$
  • D$\frac{m}{Q \Delta T}$
