Two different liquids of the same mass are kept in two identical vessels which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature \(T\) versus time \(t\) plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat in the liquid states to be \(C_{L_1}\) and \(C_{L_2}\) for materials \(1\) and \(2\) respectively and latent heats of fusion \(U_1\) and \(U_2\) respectively.
Choose the correct option:
| 1. |
\(C_{L_1}>C_{L_2}~\text{and }U_1<U_2\) |
| 2. |
\(C_{L_2}>C_{L_1}~\text{and }U_1<U_2\) |
| 3. |
\(C_{L_1}<C_{L_2}~\text{and }U_1>U_2\) |
| 4. |
\(C_{L_1}<C_{L_2}~\text{and }U_1<U_2\) |
