Why is it helpful that some sensory receptors quickly adapt but other receptors slowly adapt?
fast adapting sensory receptors (for example smell) adapt rapidly because a foul smell can not cause harm to your body the brain quickly gets used to it. However slow/no adapting receptors is for safety. If something did not hurt, you would continue to do it even though it causes harm to your body. If touching a hot stove didn't hurt, then we wouldn't ever stop. Our body does not adapt to this heat because it is giving us a warning sign to stop before we damage the skin.

Does ice melt quickly if you put ice?
It depends on the temperature of its surroundings. Ice will melt more quickly in a warmer environment and more slowly in a cooler environment. Other factors, such as the size and shape of the ice, can also influence how quickly it melts.
What receptors adapt most slowly?
Nociceptors (pain receptors) adapt most slowly compared to other types of receptors. They continue to fire in response to a persistent stimulus and do not adapt or desensitize as quickly as other sensory receptors.
Do thermoreceptors adapt to warm and cold slowly?
Thermo receptors can adapt to stimuli. The temperature change at first strongly stimulated the thermo receptors. With continued exposure, the warmth receptors quickly stop responding but not completely. Sensation is not as noticeable.
Do warm receptors adapt quickly?
Yes. "We all have the ability to make quick temperature adaptations. For example, when you step in the shower it immediately feels either too hot or too cold. For a moment, it's very uncomfortable, but that quickly changes. The receptors in the skin adapt very quickly to that stimulus." -findarticles.com
