Ice Melting Experiment

Instructions:

1. Touch both blocks and record your qualitative observations.
2. Will the ice melt at the same rate for each block? If not, predict what block will melt the ice faster and provide an explanation for your reasoning.
3. Run the simulation.
4. Are both blocks the same temperature? Click the Temperature Gun button to see the initial temperature of both blocks.
