In Newton's experiment of cooling,the water equivalent of two similar calorimeters is $10 \ g$ each. They are filled with $350 \ g$ of water and $300 \ g$ of a liquid (equal volumes) separately. The time taken by water and liquid to cool from $70^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ is $3 \ min$ and $95 \ s$ respectively. The specific heat of the liquid will be ...... $Cal/g^{\circ}C$.
