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

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

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