$A$ solid cube of mass $m$ at a temperature $\theta_0$ is heated at a constant rate. It becomes liquid at temperature $\theta_1$ and vapour at temperature $\theta_2$. Let $s_1$ and $s_2$ be specific heats in its solid and liquid states respectively. If $L_f$ and $L_v$ are latent heats of fusion and vaporisation respectively,then the minimum heat energy supplied to the cube until it vaporises is
