$A$ liquid of mass $250 g$ is kept warm in a vessel using an electric heater. The liquid is maintained at $57^{\circ} C$ when the power supplied by the heater is $30 W$ and the surrounding temperature is $27^{\circ} C$. As the heater is switched off,it takes $10 s$ for the temperature of the liquid to fall from $47^{\circ} C$ to $46.9^{\circ} C$. The specific heat capacity of the liquid is:

  • A
    $8000 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$
  • B
    $9000 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$
  • C
    $6000 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$
  • D
    $12000 J kg^{-1} K^{-1}$
