The company has recently expanded their product range to include some aluminium components. To aid in the manufacturing process michael has been asked by the production manager to determine the amount of heat energy required to exactly melt 40kg of aluminium at 20° C. The melting point of aluminium is 660 °C, its latent heat of fusion is 387 kJ/kg and its specific heat capacity is 950J/kg.K. Briefly discuss the changes that occur within the copper during this process. please solve exact and accurate with complete steps and explanation..Thank you!!!!!
