After the sinking of RMS Titanic, US operated the International Ice patrol with the purpose of monitoring the presence and movements of icebergs in the Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Once, they observed a unique tabular iceberg in a form of a rectangle (250 km x 50 km x 300 m). The sun is the only source of heat and the ice absorbs a mean of 98 J/m2-s, 12.5 hrs per day. The exposed area for heating is 250 km x 50 km and the density is 920 kg/m3. Which of the following statements is/are correct based on the above description? Check all that apply. The heat involved are both latent and sensible heats. The mass of the iceberg can be determined from the given density and dimensions. The heat involved is latent heat only. The total amount of the heat absorbed by the ice has negative sign.
