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
are the same for Both
is greater for the ball
is greater for the spring
for the two may or may not be the same depending upon the metal
A stationary object at $4°C$ and weighing $3.5\, kg$ falls from a height of $2000\, m$ on a snow mountain at $0°C$. If the temperature of the object just before hitting the snow is $0°C$ and the object comes to rest immediately $(g = 10\,m/{s^2})$ and (latent heat of ice$ = 3.5 \times {10^5}\,joule/\sec $), then the object will melt
A quantity of heat required to change the unit mass of a solid substance, from solid state to liquid state, while the temperature remains constant, is known as
What are vapourization and boiling point ? Explain the process of boiling of water.
The portion $AB$ of the indicator diagram representing the state of matter denotes
A copper block of mass $2.5\; kg$ is heated in a furnace to a temperature of $500\,^{\circ} C$ and then placed on a large ice block. What is the maximum amount of ice (in $kg$) that can melt? (Specific heat of copper $=0.39\; J g ^{-1} K ^{-1}$ ;heat of fusion of water $=335\; J g ^{-1})$
