A block of ice with mass $m$ falls into a lake. After impact, a mass of ice $m/5$ melts. Both the block of ice and the lake have a temperature of $^o C$. If $L$ represents the heat of fusion, the minimum distance the ice fell before striking the surface is

  • A

    $\frac{L}{{5g}}$

  • B

    $\frac{{5L}}{g}$

  • C

    $\frac{{gL}}{{5m}}$

  • D

    $\frac{{mL}}{{5g}}$
