The total surface area! The total surface area! The total surface area! The total surface area!
It should be relatively easy to find the surface area of a box when you are given the surface area.
It depends on the surface area of what!
It is the area of the exposed surface. So if you take a cube, the surface area is the sum of the areas of each of the 6 faces. They are all the same in the case of a cube. In general, add up the surface area of each exposed surface and this is the total surface area.
surface area
yes,the surface of the ice affects the ice melting.The molecules on the surface of ice are exposed to the surrounding they absorb heat from surrounding .Hence,the ice melts.
A cylinder shaped ice cube will melt faster because it has a greater surface area than the rectangle-shaped ice cube has. Cubes of ice with less surface area will melt slower. Ice that has very low surface area has more ice concealed inside than it does on the outside. Therefore, ice cubes that have more surface area will melt faster... I hope this will help you.. :) ..
more surface area.
Crushed ice since their is a greater surface area exposed.
because it is already ice (frozen)
It depends, the ice cube can have the same amount of water in it but if its flatter or if it has a greater surface area it will melt faster than one with less surface area.
Hollow ice cubes are faster to make and have more surface area in your drink.
A crushed ice cube has more surface area that a whole ice cube...therefor heat is applyed to more of the "ice cube" during a time peroid.
No, the greater the surface area the faster the ice cube will melt.
Regardless of the mechanism of heat transfer, conduction, convection or radiation, the larger the surface area the quicker the rate of melting. Melting rate is all about how much heat can get in, and a larger surface area will absorb more heat.
Cubes because of the smaller surface area. Less surface area means less melting.
I think these are the factors: - temperature - sun ray - the surface which the ice cube is placed on and maybe - the size of the ice cube
