ice cube melting rate problem

[Deleted member 4993]

I refigured- is it dv/ds=k(6s squared)? <<<< No !! that is dV/dt

V = s[sup:3daj73f5]3[/sup:3daj73f5]

Why is 'k' coming in - where is '6' coming from?

I thought dv/dt was 6Ksquared to that = dv/ds * -2k ( which was ds/dt)
so that formula gave me that answer

I figured it would be wrong-I'm just not getting it
