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

On a winter day when the atmospheric temperature drops to -10^(@)C , ice forms on the surface of a lajke. (a) Calculate the rate of increases of thickness of the ice when 10cm of ice is already formed. (b) Calculate the total time taken in forming 10cm of ice. Assume that the temperature of the entire water reaches 0^(@)C before the ice starts forming. Density of water =1000kgm^(-3) , latent heat of fusion of ice =3.36xx10^(5)Jkg^(-1) and thermal conductivity of ice =1.7Wm^(-1) ^(@)C^(-1) . Neglect the expension of water on freezing.
