energy provided by the heater = Pt = 100 * 200 = 20000 J 20000 = mL 20000 = 0.6L L = 33333.33 J kg^(-1) the question is a little bit strange...... if the question asks u to find some constant which is well defined already, (e.g. specific latent heat of ice, radius of earth, mass of sun......), the ans should be very closed to that value. However, this ans is far away from that value...... original value of specific latent heat of ice = 3.34 * 10^5 J kg^(-1) ans = 33333.33 J kg^(-1) [ 本帖最後由 sapphire 於 16/12/2007 10:27 AM 編輯 ] |
