A $10.0 \,W$ electrical heater is used to heat a container filled with $0.5 \,kg$ of water.It is found that the temperature of the water and the container rose by $3 \,K$ in $15 \,min$. The container is then emptied, dried and filled with $2 \,kg$ of an oil. It is now observed that the same heater raises the temperature of the container-oil system by $2 \,K$ in $20 \,min$. Assuming no other heat losses in any of the processes, the specific heat capacity of the oil is ................ $ \times 10^3 \,JK ^{-1} kg ^{-1}$
