A metal has a latent heat of fusion of 2.32  104 J/kg, a specific heat of 128 J/kg  K, and a melting point of 228C. A 30-g pellet of this metal at 16C hits a solid wall and comes to a complete stop.
 
  What would the speed of the pellet have to be in order for it to melt completely when it hits the wall, assuming that all of its kinetic energy is transformed into heat within the pellet? A) 207 m/s
  B) 215 m/s
  C) 232 m/s
  D) 273 m/s
  E) 317 m/s

Question 2

A heat engine having the maximum possible efficiency has an efficiency of 25 when operating between two heat reservoirs. If the temperature of the cold reservoir is 300 K, what is the temperature of the hot reservoir?
 
  A) 375 K B) 450 K C) 400 K D) 350 K E) 500 K
