A current of 2A passes through a heater of resistance 3ohms for 4 minutes to melt a certain mass of ice at 0°C, Calculate the mass of the ice. [specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336J ].
A.
12.86g
B.
8.57g
C.
4.29g
D.
0.148g
Correct Answer: 8.57g
Explanation
B:
given: A1 = 1.2×10 cm , 40 = 40 - 0 °C = 40 °C
using = 2 =
A - A = A = 2 A
= 2x1.2×10 x1.2×103×40
A=115.2×10
= 1.15 cm
B:
given: A1 = 1.2×10 cm , 40 = 40 - 0 °C = 40 °C
using = 2 =
A - A = A = 2 A
= 2x1.2×10 x1.2×103×40
A=115.2×10
= 1.15 cm
