Most people prefer rock salt to melt ice (sidewalks, driveways, etc) over table salt because it does not cake on the surface like table salt. As for effectiveness, they all combat ice the same. All edible salts are kosher unless something is added to them to render the salt non-kosher such as flavourings. There is no specific type of salt that is "kosher salt".

Why does the epsom salt melt the ice the slowest?

Epsom salt melts ice slowly because it has a lower freezing point compared to regular water, meaning it needs to be even colder to freeze. As a result, it takes longer for the ice to melt as the epsom salt absorbs heat from its surroundings to raise its temperature enough to melt the ice.

Which salt melts three ice cubes the fastest table salt or kosher salt?

Chemically the two are the same, "kosher salt" is not strictly speaking the correct terminology, and "which melts the fastest" is sort of the wrong question to be asking anyway. That said, I would expect table salt (which is usually in smaller particles) to melt ice faster than the relatively larger koshering salt.

Does rock salt melt ice faster than epsom salt?

Yes, salt really does melt ice, but it can refreeze if the temperature is low enough. The idea is to create a salt-water mix that has a much lower freezing point. Generally, rock salt may be used, occasionally with other binders such as sand. An alternative to using granular salt is to spray on a solution of brine, sometimes mixed with other minerals or chemicals (usually not ordinary antifreeze because it is ecologically toxic).
