A substance of mass $m\,kg$ requires a power input of $P$ $watt$ to remain in the molten state at its melting point. When the power is turned off, the substance completely solidifies in time $t\,sec$. The latent heat of fusion of the substance is

A

$\frac{{Pm}}{t}$

B

$\frac{{Pt}}{m}$

C

$\frac{{m}}{Pt}$

D

$\frac{{t}}{Pm}$

Solution

In reverse case we have to supply heat to melt

$=P \times t$

$\therefore \quad \mathrm{mL}=\mathrm{Pt} \quad \Rightarrow \mathrm{L}=\frac{\mathrm{Pt}}{\mathrm{m}}$
