Ice starts forming in a lake with water at 0^(@)C when the atmosphere temperature is -10^(@)C .If the time taken for first 1cm of ice be formed is 12 minute; the time taken for the thickness of the ice to change from 1cm to 2cm will be:

Bottom of a lake is at 0^(@)C and atmospheric temperature is -20^(@)C . If 1 cm ice is formed on the surface in 24 h, then time taken to form next 1 cm of ice is

The atmospheric temperature above a lake is below 0^(@)C and constant. It is found that a 2 cm layer of ice is formed in four days. In how many days will the thickness increase to 3 cm?

Most substances contract on freezing . However, water does not belong to this category. We know that water expands on freezing. Further , coefficient of volume expansion of water in the temperature range from 0^(@)C to 4^(@)C is negative and above 4^(@)C it is positive . This behaviour of water shapes the freezing of lakes as the atmospheric temperature goes down and it is still above 4^(@)C . If the atmospheric temperature is below 0^(@)C and ice begins to form at t = 0 , thickness of ice sheet formed up to a time 't' will be directly proprotional to
