Will the age of the ice increase or decrease the farther down towards the ice core?

The age of the ice increases as you go further down towards the ice core. The deeper you go, the older the ice.


What temperature of water is best for ice cube melt faster?

If Ice cubes are melting in water, the temperature of both the ice cubes and the water will be exactly the freezing temperature of water: 32F, 0C. You cannot change this. You can add heat to make the ice cubes melt faster, but the extra heat will have no effect on the temperature, It will all go to melting the ice cubes.


Why do ice cubes flip over in water?

Ice cubes can flip over in water due to the difference in density between ice and water. As ice begins to melt, the water around it becomes denser and exerts more pressure on the ice cube. This pressure can cause the ice cube to flip over as it melts unevenly.


Does water increase in temperature while converting to ice?

While actually converting to ice (at 0 degrees C or 32 degrees F), the temperature of water does not change. Once it is ice, the temperature can go down. Likewise, while converting to water(at 0 degrees C or 32 degrees F), the temperature of ice does not change. Once it is water, the temperature can go up.


Why did my ice cube go when I put them in water?

When you put ice cubes in water, they float because their density is less than that of liquid water. The ice cubes displace some of the water, but they don't sink; instead, they remain partially submerged due to buoyancy. As they melt, the ice cubes will eventually turn into water, contributing to the overall liquid in the container.

Can you go in the dinosaur place in ice age village?

If you become level 25 you will be able to unlock the disosaur world. But you can't transfer the things that you have in your ice age village, and all the dinosaurs that you have in the ice age village would be automatically transfered into the dinosaur world.

How many ice age movies are there?

Ice Age Ice Age 2: The Meltdown Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs Ice Age 4(Hopefully):Th4w, coming out 2012. I'm a little depressed with what they are thinking of as a plot right now, but so far, whats been going around is that Manny, Diego, Sid, Scrat, the possums,peaches and (maybe....a BIG maybe...)Buck &Scratte. My personal favorite character out of all the movies is Buck by a long shot, and I think people would get mad if he is taken out.Basically the plot is that the gang find themselves frozen in a museum, in present day, and when they are unfrozen they escape. I think they are thinking of making Peaches tie in with a recent event, which was a baby mammoth was found on an island somewhere. I personally am not fond of what they are doing unless they keep all the characters..(and maybe bring in some new characers too?...questions have been raised about a girl weasel for Buck...) Which, honestly, probably won't happen....knowing big corporations..but, we can always hope =) Hey! If you want to read plot with everyone unculding Buck go to google.com type in ice age 3 buck then go to BUCK-Facebook. Go to my profile read MY PLOT The Ice Age saga: Return of the Dinosaurs. *And Buck's former girlfriend Vanessa's in it and Sid finds love too* LOL. MY PLOT IS FUNNY. New Characters? Victor Terrance Vanessa Penny etc. lol. And Peaches is in it too. And Crash's "I BELEIVE I CAN FLLYYY!!" Come back.. DO READ Tell ppl! *My profile name is Kimberly Kerr* with a PIC of Esther from the movie Orphan... :D Now it's Miranda Cosgrove!
