The iceberg is lighter than water, but not by much. The ice floats, but about 80% of the iceberg is under water.
it will over flood the earths surface with melt water of the ice berg and detroy land under sea level
I think that salty ice cube do float in water because ice bergs float it water and they're made of salty water. i think i depends on the density (Amount of salt) in the ice
Under Arctic ice, you'll find salt water. Under Antarctic ice, you'll find a continent -- 10% of the earth's surface.
The different between ice and water is that ice is solid and water is liquid. Under standard pressure, water exists in the solid form as ice when its temperature is below 0° Celsius (32° F). It exists in liquid form between 0° and 100° Celsius.
Ice flows consists of surface ice. Ice bergs are a huge piece of thick ice, the majority of which is under water. It's been said that as much as 80% of an ice berg is under water.
seven-eights of it is below the water
The iceberg is lighter than water, but not by much. The ice floats, but about 80% of the iceberg is under water.
The part below water is 7 times larger than the part above
it will over flood the earths surface with melt water of the ice berg and detroy land under sea level
it will over flood the earths surface with melt water of the ice berg and detroy land under sea level
Though ice is less dense than water but still more of an iceberg is below water due to enormous mass of the iceberg...
an ice sheet is a sheet, ice berg is a berg
it depends weather its an ice berg ice bergs tend to stay :) Its not difficult, ice melts in water, the warmer the water, the quicker it melts
When glacial ice calves (breaks apart), chunks that fall into the sea float, because ice is less dense than water. These chunks of ice are just like cubes of ice in a glass of water, except larger. 90% of the ice berg will be below the surface of the sea.
1 you cant tip ice berg
Under.Another answer:According to Wikipedia, "Because the density of pure ice is about 920 kg/m³, and that of sea water about 1025 kg/m³, typically only one-tenth of the volume of an iceberg is above water."
