Yes.

Keep in mind that it takes one BTU to reduce or increase the temperature of one cm3 water by one degree celsius.

Per physics, cold moves toward hot, so the temperature of the ice can be said to move into the temperature of the water. (This can help you visualize the process).

As the ice melts, it cools the water around it. The greater the volume, the longer the cooling process takes. This is also affected by the surface area and the amount of it in contact with the water.

To break it down simply, the greater the volume of water, the faster the ice will melt.

The shape of the ice cube affects the melting Time because of the shape of the ice cube if it is bigger then it will take longer to melt. If the ice cube is smaller than the time will be a shorter amount of time.

How is science related to the melting time of ice cubes?

A lot of factors affect an ice cube, and this can be described using science. For example you can use science to explain the transfer of heat from the ice cube particles to the surrounding air, as cold is transfered to a particle which is hotter, which causes the outer particles of the ice cube to gain hear and to melt etc. :)

How does time effect space?

Time doesn't affect space. Space and time are the same thing in relativity; that's why we call it spacetime. Mass affects spacetime and spacetime affects mass.


Why do ice cubes shrink if left in the freezer for a long time?
