It reduces drag.
*Drag meaning friction between the blade and the ice. That said, it takes an extreme amount of force to melt ice by means of applying pressure. Consider a glacier-- if ice melted under a small amount of pressure, a large glacier would start to melt under its own weight! We can then realize that figure skaters do not melt the ice under the blade my means of pressure. Basically, yes friction/drag WOULD be reduced if the ice beneath the blade melted, but the ice simply won't melt due to the weight of the skater alone.
What else can I help you with?
Which metal melts on the palm of the hand?
Francium melts at about 80oF. Cesium melts at about 83.4oF. Gallium melts at about 85.6oF. All of these are solid at room temperature but would melt in your hand. Rubidium melts at about 103.4oF, so that is just a little higher than body temperature. Mercury melts at 37.7oF, so it would certainly melt in your hand, but it would already be a liquid at room temperature.
Does anything happen when you burn sand?
no it just melts no it just melts but it will stink
If you freeze glue will it still be sticky?
No it will be frozen.After it melts it will.
What happens when dry ice melts?
Rather than melts, dry ice evaporates. This process is called sublimation and happens at a slower rate than the melting of water ice.
When ice melts to form liquid energy is?
released
Is there any friction when you are roller skating?
Yes, that's why the Zamboni must come out to refreeze the ice and fill in the grooves. The blade heats the ice slightly as it skates over it. It creates the grooves because it melts the ice where it glides.
What initial problem confronts Beowulf as he battles Grendel mother?

What forms when rock melts?
When rock melts, it forms magma. Magma is a molten mixture of rock-forming substances, gases, and water that is found beneath the Earth's surface. If the magma reaches the surface, it can then solidify to form igneous rocks.
Why do melts migrate upward?
Melts migrate upward due to their lower density compared to the surrounding solid rock. This buoyancy force causes the melts to rise towards the surface. Additionally, the presence of volatile components in the melts, such as water or carbon dioxide, can further enhance the upward migration due to their ability to reduce the melting temperature of rocks.
What do you call a metamorphic rock that melts beneath the Earth's surface?
At the point of total melt, it would be called magma. Metamorphic rock that exhibits partial melting is called migmatite.
When the heat beneath the surface of Earth melts the plate material and sends molten rock to the surface what occurs?
A volcanic eruption, or just a simple lava flow, depending on the magnitude.
What occurs when when the heat beneath the surface of earth melts the plate material and sends molten rock to the surface?
A volcanic eruption, or just a simple lava flow, depending on the magnitude.
Old ocean floor is destroyed and absorbed by the Earth and remelted beneath what?
Old ocean floor is destroyed and absorbed by the Earth at subduction zones, where tectonic plates collide and one plate is forced beneath the other. The remelting occurs beneath volcanic arcs, where the subducted crust melts and rises to the surface as magma, leading to the formation of new crust.
What happens when ice is wrapped in saw dust or woolen blanket?
