A shallow insulated flat pan containing a thin layer of water is placed outdoors at night. Theeffective blackbody temperature of the cloudless sky night sky is -95 C and the outside airtemperature is 16 C. Assume that kice=2.2W/mK, ice=917kg/m3, cp_ice=2100 J/kgK, hwater_ice=333.7kJ/kg, h=2W/m2K ice =0.95.(a) Will ice form?(b) If ice will forms, what is the initial rate of formation
