Due to cold weather,a $1\, m$ water pipe of cross-sectional area $1\, cm^2$ is filled with ice at $-10^{\circ}C$. Resistive heating is used to melt the ice. $A$ current of $0.5\, A$ is passed through a $4\, k\Omega$ resistance. Assuming that all the heat produced is used for melting,what is the minimum time required? (In $s$)
(Given: latent heat of fusion for water/ice $= 3.33 \times 10^5\, J/kg$,specific heat of ice $= 2 \times 10^3\, J/(kg\cdot K)$ and density of ice $= 10^3\, kg/m^3$)
