Answer:
33300J
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of ice = 100g
Unknown:
Amount of energy = ?
Solution:
This is a phase change process from solid to liquid. In this case, the latent heat of melting of ice is 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg.
So;
H = mL
m is the mass
L is the latent heat of melting ice
Now, insert the parameters and solve;
H = mL
mass from gram to kilogram;
100g gives 0.1kg
H = 0.1 x 3.33 x 10⁵ = 33300J
Answer:
500,050000 years
Explanation:
Given that :
Rate of Accumulation = 3cm/ 1000 years
Height of seamounts = 1.5km
Representing height of seamounts in cm;
(1.5 *1000 * 100) = 1500150 cm
Time taken = height / rate
Time taken = (1500150 cm / 3cm) * 1000
Time taken = 500,050000 years
