suppose you put some ice is put into a container of water at room temperature. For faster cooling, the ice should (i) be allowed to float naturally in the water or (ii) be pushed to the bottom of the container with a glass rod and held there. Explain your answer.

i am just trying it could be wrong too i am not sure about it but according to me the ans is (1)let ice be allowed to float naturally in the water

Explanation:

if u put water in ice or ice in water the temperature of water decreases and then the process gets slower but if u allow to float it then the temperature of water and surrounding air decreases and the heat is lost from air and water both so here the heat is more than only just water here it allows both to give heat and in 2nd option the heat is only lost by water and gained by icehere it allows only water to give heat so the heat is less in surrounding of ice in water so more heat more faster the process therefore i think the 1st option is correct

prolly a beacuse the momentuem the car has increases while going down hill
