They leave behind cold water.

They also leave behind to rock and soil that they have pushed forward, known as morraine.
THIS IS TRUE.Gradpoint/Novanet :) ;)

The rock material deposited by glaciers is called "glacial till." This sediment consists of a mixture of clay, silt, sand, gravel, and boulders that glaciers grind and transport as they move. When glaciers melt, they leave behind this unsorted debris, which can form various landforms such as moraines and drumlins.
Glacial drift refers to the material deposited by glaciers as they advance and retreat. As glaciers move, they pick up rocks, sediment, and other debris, and when the glaciers melt, they leave behind this material known as glacial drift. This process of deposition and erosion by glaciers reshapes the landscape by carving out valleys, creating moraines, and smoothing out the land.
As glaciers melt, the ice creates depressions that fill with water, forming blue lakes. These lakes absorb more sunlight due to their darker color compared to ice, which accelerates the melting process of surrounding glacier ice. Additionally, the presence of water can enhance the flow of glacial melt, increasing the rate at which the glacier retreats. This feedback loop of melting glaciers and expanding lakes contributes to the rapid changes observed in glacial landscapes.
Yes, When the glacier melts, all the rocks underneath are still there.....AnswerYes rocks melt out of Glaciers. The main types I can remember:Glacial till ( rocks left as an even bed )Erratics are large rocks (Boulder's) left scattered aboutLateral moraine's. These are drifts of rocks left where a stream has melted and cut a route through the glacier or the edges of where the glacier got to or whereTerminal Moraine is where a Glacier got to and stopped advancing or retreating for a time thus plowing up a big long narrow pile of rock.
When the ice caps melt, it leaves water behind. If all the of the icecaps melt, it will rise the ocean level 20ft.
no. mountains are formed by volcanism or plate tectonics - upwellings of magma that push the earth upward or pressure between tectonic plates which folds the earth into mountain ranges at the boundaries. However, glaciers did gouge out valleys between mountains.
Global warming
Water can speed up the rate at which glaciers melt. Whether the water is acidic or not has no effect.
