Answer:

m = 24146.34 kg

Explanation:

The heat of fusion is defined as the amount of heat required to melt a unit mass of a substance completely. Hence, it can be calculated by the following formula:

[tex]H = \frac{Q}{m}\\\\m = \frac{Q}{H}[/tex]

where,

m = mass of copper = ?

Q = Heat absorbed by rod = 4950000000 J

H = Heat of fusion of copper = 205000 J/kg

Therefore,

[tex]m = \frac{4950000000\ J}{205000\ J/kg}[/tex]

m = 24146.34 kg
