about 7/8 to 6/7 is hidden under water

Why ice berg is over the water?
Icebergs are formed when chunks of ice break off from glaciers or ice shelves and float in the water. Due to the difference in density between ice and water, only about 10% of an iceberg is visible above the water, with the rest below the surface. This visible portion is what we see "over the water."
How much does a tip of iceberg show?
about 12.5 percent of an iceberg is above the water. That leaves the other 87.5 percent hidden from view.
Can a large iceberg have more heat than a cup of boiling water?
No, a large iceberg contains much less heat energy compared to a cup of boiling water. The heat required to raise the temperature of an iceberg even slightly is much larger than that needed to reach boiling point for a cup of water.
How much of the Lambert glacier is covered underwater?
Only 10 percent of the iceberg are above water. That means 90 percent of the iceberg are underwater.
Is the visible part of an iceberg larger than the part under the sea?
No, the visible part of an iceberg is typically much smaller than the part submerged underwater. About 90% of an iceberg's mass is hidden beneath the surface of the sea, with only about 10% visible above water. This is due to the lower density of ice compared to seawater, which causes the majority of the iceberg to float below the surface.
How much bulk of an iceberg is underwater?
9/10ths of the iceberg is typically underwater.
How much of an iceberg is visible above the water line?
Approximately 10% of an iceberg is visible above the water line, with the remaining 90% submerged below the surface. This is due to the lower density of ice compared to water, causing the iceberg to float with a significant portion hidden underwater.
What has more heat energy an iceberg or hot tea?
It surely depends on how big the iceberg is ,as a really big iceberg contains a lot of thermal energy and much more than a liter of hot water.
Which was bigger iceberg or titanic?
By far, the iceberg was much, much larger than Titanic. The upper 10% that was out of the water alone was almost up to the promenade deck and we don't even know how wide it was.
How much can an iceberg be seen above the water?
Typically, only about 10% of an iceberg is visible above the water's surface, with the remaining 90% submerged. This is due to the density of ice being lower than that of seawater. The visible portion can vary greatly in size and shape, depending on the iceberg's overall dimensions and the conditions of the surrounding water.
How many cubic feet of water to move 50 tons of iceberg?
50 tons of iceberg equals 100,000 lb. It is fresh water, which weighs 62.4 lb/cu ft, so it contains 1603 cu ft of fresh water (imagine a cube, 11'9" on a side), expanded by freezing. Salt water weighs 64 lb/cu ft, so the iceberg displaces 1563 cu ft while in the ocean. How much water to float it depends on the size of the vessel it is floating in, and the kind of water used to float the iceberg. I.e. The size of the vessel, minus 1563 for salt water, or minus 1603 for fresh water, equals the amount to float it. "How [much] ...to move [it]?" has no answer.
How much of an ice berg above the surface and how much is below the surface?
On average, about 10% of an iceberg is above the surface, while the rest (90%) is below the surface. The amount visible above the water depends on factors like the iceberg's shape, density, and buoyancy.
