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.
Can you give an example of a sentence using the word 'cube'?
I only like cheese when it is in the shape of a cube. or What is 4 cubed? or I tried to shave by pubes into a cube. I have ice cube in my drink.
What happens to the density volume mass and shape of an ice cube put in a glass jar and left out in the sun?
it melts
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
How many sides are on a ice cube?
there are six sides on a ice cube
How ice cube melting is a physical change?
Because it changes from a solid shape (ice cube) to a liquid shape (Water)
Why does a ice cube kept in a freezer does not change its shape?
The ice cube remains in its shape in the freezer because the temperature inside the freezer is below the ice cube's melting point, preventing it from melting or changing shape. As long as the temperature stays below freezing, the ice cube will remain solid.
What things are in the shape of a cube?
ice, and boxes (some)
What are ice cubes?
Frozen water in cube shape.
What common objects are cube shape?
Dice. sugar cubes boxes Rubik's Cube ice cube building block

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:)
What is and ice cube?
frozen water An ice cube is a cube (or other shape) that is simply frozen water that has been in an area that is 32 degrees or colder for a certain amount of time.
Is an ice cube a liquid gas or a solid?
An ice cube is a solid. It is made up of water molecules that have arranged themselves into a rigid structure with a fixed volume and shape.
What is the manipulated variable to does the shape of an ice cube affect its melting?
nothing
Will the shape of an ice cube affect the rate at which it melts?
A cube can only have one shape "cubic" - (someone has asked you a trick question). However, certainly the rate at which a piece of solid ice melts IS affect by its shape, the greater the surface area of the piece of ice, the faster it will melt.
Why does liquid takes the shape of a container but an ice cube does not?
It's because an icecube is a solid. Unless if it's melted, it will stay as a solid (cube shape)
