## Heat Transfer (Q = mcDeltaT)
The heat energy needed to change the temperature of a substance depends on its mass, specific heat capacity, and temperature change.
### Formula
**Q = m * c * DeltaT**
where m is mass (kg), c is specific heat capacity (J/(kg·°C)), and DeltaT is the temperature change.

Exemple Résolu
Heating 1 kg of water from 20°C to 70°C (DeltaT = 50°C).
- Q = m * c * DeltaT
- Q = 1 * 4186 * 50
- Q = 209,300 J
- Q = 209.3 kJ
