Does a sphere shaped ice cube melt faster than a regular shaped ice cube?

A cylinder shaped ice cube will melt faster because it has a greater surface area than the rectangle-shaped ice cube has. Cubes of ice with less surface area will melt slower. Ice that has very low surface area has more ice concealed inside than it does on the outside. Therefore, ice cubes that have more surface area will melt faster... I hope this will help you.. :) ..

∙ 14y agoNo, it will actually melt slower due to a lesser surface area to mass ratio.

∙ 13y agoYes if the surface area is larger it will cause the ice cube to melt faster. Also a flat sheet of ice would probably melt the fastest or a cube

What would melt faster an red ice cube or an clear ice cube?
coloring doesnt matter. an ice is an ice cube. now, if that coloring is due to chemicals mixed into the water, then there'll be a difference in how fast it'll melt, but otherwise, they will melt at the same time.

Why are submarines torpedo shaped and not cubes or spheres?
A couple of reasons.A submarine isn't shaped like a cube because water flowing around a cube would make noise that could be heard on sonar. Submarine forces work very hard to make their submarines less audible.It also isn't shaped like a cube because depending on the way the cube is oriented in the water, it would take more power to push the submarine through the water.A combat submarine isn't shaped like a sphere because a sphere won't hold as much load as they would the shape they are made. They have made spherical-shaped submersibles for extremely deep-water exploration because a sphere is the most pressure-resistant shape.
