Solution
(i) Heat absorbed by the body is directly proportional to the mass of the body, i.e., more the mass, more will be the heat absorbed by the body.
Q∝M
(ii) Heat absorbed by the body is directly proportional to the rise in temperature, i.e., more heat will be absorbed when the body is heated at greater temperature.
