Cups that are made of materials that conduct heat better, and have a higher ratio of surface area to volume.
So for instance a tall narrow cup made of copper would melt ice faster in a room of given ambient temperature than a cup that is made from a poor heat conductor like plastic with a wide squat shape.
As a general statement, most glasses are conductors of heat and most plastics are insulators. Therefore, in like for like conditions, the plastic cup will keep ice from melting the longest.
The glass cup melts ice the fastest. The cup that stays cool the longest is Styrofoam.
Thinner cups
Styrofoam
ceramic cup
it melts faster in the plastic cup
A black cup would make the ice-cube melt the fastest becauseblack substances trap in more heat than any other color.
Snow and ice both are same . Both require same amount of heat to melt . so both melt at same time. But here key is how u give heat to both of them. If u take block of ice it takes some late to melt when compared with snow as it has large surface area exposed when compared with ice.
The amount of time it takes for ice to melt in 1 cup of water depends upon the temperature of the water the ice is in and the temperature of the environment.
a hypotheis is a prediction eg)if you put an ice cube in a cup on a tableyour hypotheis would bethe ice cube will melt in 30 minutes.
Yes, crushed ice will melt faster in a cup of water than in a cup by itself. This is because the water is a higher temperature than the ice.
it melts faster in the plastic cup
More surface contact with air.
no, it dosen't
No paper has magical freezing properties!
if it is under the light it will blossem into a califlower
That depends entirely on the air temperature and the temperature of the water.
If you put both near a fire the aluminum cup with ice would melt faster because more light energy and thermal energy would reach it when a fome cup would just sit there and absorb the heat and give little bits of heat of at different times. If you put it in the sun the aluminum cup would still burn better because it gets more sun light and lets in more heat.
Yes; because the rushing water will use (erosion) to wear it away faster than the temperature surrounding the ice cube in the air will
Yes
Salt affects how fast ice melts in a cup of water. When you add salt, the melting process will be faster but it will only affect the part of the ice cube that comes into contact with salt.
