A window of a car is found to be covered with 1.3cm of ice. If the area of the window is 1 m2, and the ice is at -12 degrees Celsius, what is the minimum heat required to melt all the ice? Take the density of ice to be 900 kg/m3, the specific heat capacity of ice to be 0.5 cal/g*K, and the latent heat of fusion to be 80 cal/g. Answer in kcal.

Find the volume of the ice:
"V=Ab."
The mass of ice:
"m=\\rho V."
The heat to melt it consists of heat required to heat it to melting point (0°) and heat of fusion:
