It is possible depending on how hot the heat lamp is, and how close it is to the ice cube. However, I advise against it in general, because it doesn't make a clean cut if you want to shape the cube. It's also fairly time consuming.
I advise using a chainsaw or ice saw to cut and shape the ice, then use the lamp to create a smoother edge, if that's what you're looking for.

Can you melt people?
You as a human cannot melt from heat. The worse thing is that you might get burnt. EXP: An ice cube will melt in heat...I don't think you're an ice cube!! :)
What happened when you put some ice cube in boiling water?
the heat capacity in the boiling water cause the ice cube to melt rapidly because heat transferres to the other object that is cold or hotter to make the temperature the same degree (212 degrees fahrenheit)
How long to melt ice cube in a fridge?
The time it takes to melt an ice cube in a fridge can vary based on factors like the size of the cube, the temperature setting of the fridge, and the air circulation inside. Generally, a small ice cube can melt in a few hours to overnight in a typical fridge.
How will heat flow if an ice cube is dropped in boiling water?
Heat will flow from the boiling water to the ice cube, causing the cube to melt and the water temperature to decrease. The final temperature of the system will depend on the masses and initial temperatures of the ice cube and boiling water.
What happens to an ice cube after 5 minutes in a warm place?
The ice cube will begin to melt due to the warm temperature in its surroundings. It will gradually turn into liquid water as it absorbs heat energy from the environment.
Does the shape of an ice cube affect how long it takes the ice cube to melt?
Yes, absolutely. Heat transfer from the surrounding environment into the ice cube causes it to melt. The greater the rate of heat transfer INTO to ice cube, the faster it will melt. The greater the surface area of the ice cube, in relation to it size, the faster the melting will occur. The ideal shape for the least heat transfer [and this is true for cold or hot objects] is a SPHERE. A sphere has the minimum surface area for the mass of the object. Any shape other than a sphere has more surface area for the mass, an will melt faster. The thinner more spreak out ice will melt faster melting consumes enerhy inthe form of heat. The amount of energy needed is the proportional of the ice water. The heat applied to it can be radiation or matter. Johnson Kevin, Ohio
Why does an ice cube melt and change shape when its taken out of the freezer?
it gets hot and melt
What is the variable when Melt ice cubes in a mircowave?
shape/size/surface area of the ice cube also the time it is in and the heat settings i think?
How do you melt a ice cube?
Apply heat to quickly melt it, or leave out of the fridge to slowly melt it, or just get a hair dryer and melt it with it.
What would have to happen to make an ice cube melt?
Heat must have to be applied to the ice cube.
What will happen if you put a piece of rubber under a heat lamp?
IT WILL MELT!

Does the shape of an ice cube matters how quickly it meltes?
No, only the mass of the ice and the temperature of its enviorment matters how fast it will melt. Also, both the amount of direct and indirect heat does make a difference to how fast it will melt.
Why does the shape of an ice cube affect how quickly it melts?
if it was a cube ice it wil melt slower and if its long slab will melt faster:)
Does the distance of light affect the time it takes for an ice cube to melt?
No, the distance of light does not affect the time it takes for an ice cube to melt. The time it takes for an ice cube to melt is primarily influenced by factors such as temperature, heat transfer, and the surface area of the ice cube exposed to heat.
Does the shape of an ice cube effect how long it takes the ice cube to melt?
Yes, ice melts from the outside which means the wider surface area, the faster it will melt!
