Chapter 11, Problem 11.90QP
A length of wire is placed on top of a block of ice. The ends of the wire extend over the edges of the ice, and a heavy weight is attached to each end. It is found that the ice under the wire gradually melts, so that the wire slowly moves through the ice block. At the same time, the water above the wire refreezes. Explain the phase changes that accompany this phenomenon.

Explain why the temperature of the ice does not change. What does change? The heat is released by the ice, providing the energy required to partially overcome intermolecular attractive forces in the solid and causing a phase transition to liquid water.
