In a condition of warm water and cold air, the bottom would melt faster than the top and it would roll over. As the ice on the bottom melted, it would become top heavy. I would think that it is not impossible for some icebergs. The more closely an iceberg resembles a sphere, (or log-like) the more likely that some rolling might occur. And I would think that while it might be unlikely, it is probably possible for some icebergs to be sphere-like.

The same proportions of ice above and below the waterline will hold throughout the life of the iceberg; there would be no such thing as a top-heavy iceberg unless perhaps it got grounded on a shoal.

If an an iceberg as 90 percent of its body below the water level but a ship has 90 percent of its body above the water level then Why doesn't a big ship like a cuise ship roll over?

The iceberg rolls because it is constantly melting, casuing it scenter of mass to change. The ship is help upright by water displacement and the shape of the hull so it does not roll like an iceberg does.

What percentage of an iceberg's mass is above the waterline?

Between 10 to 20 percent of an iceberg mass is above water. An iceberg is a massive piece of floating ice. Usually, approximately 80 to 90 percent of an iceberg is below sea level. A very large iceberg can be over 230 feet in height and over 738 feet in width.

How the water in an iceberg may fall as rain over a city on the land?

When an iceberg melts, the water from the iceberg enters the surrounding ocean. This water may then evaporate into the atmosphere and form clouds, which can eventually travel over a city on land. When these clouds release the gathered water as precipitation, it can fall as rain over the city.
