Heat is removed from a molten metal of mass $$2$$ $$kg$$ at a constant rate of $$10$$ $$kW$$ till it is completely solidified. The cooling curve is shown in the figure.

Assuming uniform temperature throughout the volume of the metal during solidification, the latent heat of fusion of the metal (in $$kJ/kg$$) is ______________

Ratio of solidification time of a cylindrical casting (height $$=$$ radius) to that of a cubic casting of side two times the height of cylindrical casting is ____________

The dimensions of a cylindrical side riser (height $$=$$ diameter) for a
$$25cm \times 15cm \times 5cm$$ steel casting are to be determined. For the tabulated shape factor values given below, the diameter of the riser (in $$cm$$) is _______________

A cube and a sphere made of cast iron (each of volume $$1000\,\,c{m^3}$$) were cast under identical conditions. The time taken for solidifying the cube was $$4$$ $$s.$$ The solidification time (in $$s$$) for the sphere is _____________________
