Calculate the power of an electric heater required to melt 1 kg of ice at 0^@ C in 30 s if the efficiency of heater is 40%. Take specific latent heat of ice = 336 J g^(-1)

One kilogram of ice at -10^@ C is heated at a constant rate until the whole of it vaporises. How much heat is required ? Specific latent heat of fusion of ice = 336 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) , specific latent heat of steam = 2268 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) , specific heat capacity of ice = 2.1 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) , specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 xx 10^3 J kg^(-1) K^(-1) .
