An ice cube, a glass of cold water, and a swimming pool are each exposed to the samme amount of sunlight on a hot day. after five minutes, the ice cube is melted and the cold drink is two degrees warmer, but the temperature of the swimming pool remains unchanged. what is the best explanation for these observations?
A. the ice cube has a higher heat capacity than the glass of water and the pool
B.the ice cube has a lower heat capacity than the glass of water and the pool
C. the ice cube and the glass of water have higher heat capacities than the swimming pool
