How does a hovercraft float on a cushion of air?
A hovercraft floats on a cushion of air created by a fan or propeller underneath the craft. This cushion of air reduces friction between the hovercraft and the ground, allowing it to glide smoothly over surfaces such as water, ice, or land. The pressure from the cushion of air supports the weight of the hovercraft, enabling it to "float" above the surface.
When pieces of glacier ice break off to float freely they are called .?
ice bergs
Why does a hovercraft need fans to move?
A hovercraft needs fans to create a cushion of air underneath it, which reduces friction with the surface and allows it to float. These fans provide the lift necessary to keep the hovercraft afloat and enable it to glide smoothly over a variety of terrains, including water, ice, and land.
What is it called when pieces of glacier ice break off to float freely?
When pieces of glacier ice break off to float freely, it is called calving. This process commonly occurs at the edge of glaciers, resulting in the formation of icebergs.

Why do glaciers float and not sink to the bottom of the ocean?
Glaciers are made of ice, which is less dense than water. Therefore, fragments of glaciers that break off into water, called icebergs, will float.
What surface best supports a hovercraft and why?
