easy
A metallic ball and highly stretched spring are made of the same material and have the same mass. They are heated so that they melt, the latent heat required
A
Are the same for both
B
Is greater for the ball
C
Is greater for the spring
D
For the two may or may not be the same depending upon the metal
(AIIMS-2002)
Solution
(a)Latent heat is independent of configuration. Ordered energy spent in stretching the spring will not contribute to heat which is disordered kinetic energy of molecules of substance.
