Its an ice allergy - there is an actually medical name for it but athletic trainers call it an ice allergy. I have the same problem and I went to the Doctor and they told me just to take an antihistamine before being in the cold for a extended period of time. I know my friends who are athletic training majors have to ask all the players if they have an ice allergy before they wrap them in ice - so its not like its completely unheard of.

Does glass break or crack with temperature changes?

When temperatures changes this can cause the molecules in an object to contract [ at low temperatures ] or to expand [ high temperatures ] . Glass is a fragile object and if the molecules in glass contract or expand quickly this can cause the glass to break . [SRM] .


When force is applied to an object but does not cause the object to move?

That will happen if the force applied is less than the limiting value of the friction between the object and the surface that it is in contact with.


What are arcing contacts?

Whenever an electrical contact is made or broken, an electrical spark jumps through the air between the two contact points while they are very close together but not yet, or not any longer, touching. That spark jumping is an electrical arc and the event is arcing contact. The main cause of arcing is the property of a circuit to maintain the continuity of the current, so whenever the contacts separate to break the circuit the air (or any dielectric medium that is used) ionises and continuity of the current is maintained, at least momentarily.


What causes an object to break on impact?

Internal stress exceeds the strength of the material. The cause of the stress is that the "leading edge" of the object stops while the "trailing edge" is still moving.


Why does glass break in the microwave?

Microwaves do not heat evenly. If one part of the glass object is heated more than others, and if the object had some kind of stress fracture (which may well be invisible to the naked eye) the expansion of the heated part may cause cracks to form, and break the object.

What happens wheharges in an uncharged metal object rearrang without direct contact with the charged object?

In that case, the fact that the charges are rearranged - there is an electric dipole - can cause the charged object and the object with the zero net charge (but with an electric dipole) to attract one another.


What are contact forces and which forces are contact?

Contact forces are forces that can only have an effect on objects that they touch, such as when you contact a box and apply force to move it. you might apply a contact force to bend, tear, stretch, compress, or twist and abject. Tension force, friction force, and elastic force are examples of contact forces.
