detailed solution
Correct option is A
Gravitational potential energy of a piece of ice at a height (h)=m g h Heat absorbed by the ice to melt completely ΔQ=14mgh.......(1) Also, ΔQ=mL.......(2) From eqns. (1) and (2), mL=14mgh or, h=4Lg Here L=3.4×105 J kg-1,g=10 N kg-1∴ h=4×3.4×10510=4×34×103=136 kmSimilar Questions
