The figure given below shows the cooling curve of a pure wax material after heating. It cools from $A$ to $B$ and solidifies along $BD$. If $L$ and $C$ are the respective values of latent heat and the specific heat of the liquid wax,the ratio $L/C$ is

  • A
    $40$
  • B
    $80$
  • C
    $100$
  • D
    $20$
