Calculate the minimum amount of energy, in joules, required to completely melt 145 g of silver initially at 22.0°C. The melting

point of silver is at 962°C. Its specific heat capacity is 236 J/kg·K and its latent heat of fusion is 105 kJ/kg.

Answer:

47391.8 J

Explanation:

Q = m c Δt

For melting, Δt = (962-22)°C

Heat required to attain melting point = 145 x 10 ⁻³ x 236 x 940 =

= 32166.8 J

Heat required to melt at melting point = m L , L is latent heat of fusion.

= 145 x 10⁻³ x 105 x 10³ = 15225 J

Total energy required = 47391.8 J

Vi = 2m/s
a= 4.5 m/s 
d= 340 m
vf= ?

use this equation ...  vf^2=vi<span>^2+2ad

you should get vf = 55.3
hope this helps </span>
