An iceberg will form in a matter of seconds as it breaks off of a glacier or ice shelf and begins floating independently in the water. The components of an iceberg (ice and rock material) will vary tremendously in age based on the speed at which the glacier moved and the rock components which are contained within.

Do all the landforms take shape quickly?
No, landforms can take millions of years to form as a result of various geological processes such as erosion, sedimentation, volcanic activity, and tectonic plate movements. Some landforms can form relatively quickly, such as volcanic islands or sand dunes, but many others, like mountain ranges or canyons, require long periods of time to develop.
How long does it take rocks to form?
Some extrusive rocks such as lava and ejecta form in minutes. Stalactites may form in a few tens of years, but commonly longer. Other rocks may take millions of years, and may have to be recycled through metamorphism to attain their final form.
How long does it take for gold to form in nature?
Gold can take millions of years to form in nature through geological processes involving heat and pressure.
Do all fossil fuels take less than 50 years to form?
No, not all fossil fuels take less than 50 years to form. For example, coal typically takes millions of years to form from dead plant matter that is compacted and heated over time. Oil and natural gas can form faster, within tens of millions of years, but still far longer than 50 years.
How many years does it take to make soil?
It can take hundreds to thousands of years to form just one inch of topsoil, depending on factors such as climate, vegetation, and topography. The process of soil formation involves the weathering of rocks, the accumulation of organic matter, and the activity of organisms.

How many penguins does it take to tip the iceberg?
No matter how many penguins are on the iceberg, you can't tip it. Even if you have the whole iceberg full you really can't do it. It has never been done but people (including me) still try to tip it.
