A large snowball is shaped into the form of a sphere. Starting at some time, which we can designate as t = 0, the snowball begins to melt. We assume for the sake of discussion that the snowball melts in such a manner that its shape remains spherical. Discuss the quantities that change with time as the snowball melts. If possible, construct a mathematical model that describes the state of the snowball at any time.
