It might, if the light bulb is giving off heat such that the place the ice-cube is in is warmer than the temperature of the surrounding area.

Otherwise, no.

Is a cubic light year a cube of time?

No. A light year is a measure of distance, not time; it is the distance that light travels in a year. So a cubic light year is a measure of volume, rather like a cubic foot or cubic meeter only much larger.


What factors can affect the time it takes for an ice cube to melt?

Factors that can affect the time it takes for an ice cube to melt include the temperature of the surrounding environment, the size and shape of the ice cube, the material it is placed on, and the presence of any insulating barriers. High temperatures, small ice cube size, direct contact with a warm surface, and lack of insulation can all contribute to faster melting.


How does the temperature of water affect the time it takes to freeze an ice cube?

Mass holds temperature--the more mass, the better it holds temperature...but, conversely, the longer it takes to get it to temperature all the way through.


What determines how long it takes a planet to revolve around the sun?

The time it takes for a planet to revolve around the sun is determined by its distance from the sun and its orbital speed. This relationship is described by Kepler's third law of planetary motion, which states that the square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of its average distance from the sun.


Does a planet distance from the sun relate to the time it takes the planet to revolve around the sun?

Yes, its all to do with Kepler's third law of planetary motion, which describes the relationship between the orbital period of the plant and the distance of that planet from the sun. Kepler found that the square of the period, P, is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis, a (P2 = ka3). k is a constant relating to the mass of the objects.

Does UV light affect the melting of an ice cube?

UV light can contribute to the melting of an ice cube by transferring energy to the ice cube, causing it to absorb the energy and melt faster. The UV light can increase the temperature of the ice cube, accelerating the melting process compared to no exposure to UV light.


How can the moon affect an earth like planet?

The tidal effect of a body increases as a cube of the distance.

Does high wattage light bulbs affect how quick it takes to melt an ice cube?

Yes. If ou have a 60 watt bulb over an ice cube, it would melt quicker than a 40, 30, or 20 watt. If you place the bulb close or farther away, that can also affect how fast the ice cube is melted. This would be a good science expirement to study, in my opinion. Also, the color of the glass around the bulb affects it, but that is another subject.


If the volume of a cube is 8 What is the shortest distance from the center of the cube to the base of the cube?

How does the distance of planet affect its period of revolution?

The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit.

What is the shortest distance from a corner of a 2 inched cube to the opposite corner of the same cube?

The shortest distance, through the body of the cube, is sqrt(22 + 22 + 22) = sqrt(12) = 3.46 inches.


What takes up more space an ice cube or the water?

The water takes up more space than the ice cube. When water freezes into ice, it expands and takes up slightly more volume than it did in its liquid form.


How can the shape of an ice cube affect how long it takes the ice cube to melt help the world?

people want their ice cubes to last longer, so if you make ice cubes in a different shape so they melt slower, people will be happier.
