When new snow is added to a glacier faster than the rate at which ice and snow melt, the glacier gets larger because the accumulation of new snow exceeds the loss from melting. This process contributes to glacier growth and expansion.
Put a question mark after westward. Larger than life and inching steadily westward the glacier was threatening the town. The town was threatened by a glacier that was larger than life and inching steadily westward toward it.
Glaciers can grow larger in size due to an increase in snow accumulation, which exceeds the rate of melting and sublimation. Cooler temperatures can also contribute to glacier growth by reducing melting and promoting the preservation of snow and ice. Additionally, changes in climate patterns, such as increased precipitation or changes in wind patterns that bring moisture, can also cause a glacier to expand.
No. Ice sheets are the largest kind of glacier, many times larger than mountain glaciers.
Striations are typically formed by the abrasion of rocks underneath a moving glacier. As the glacier moves, the rocks embedded in the base of the glacier grind against the bedrock, creating grooves known as striations. These marks can vary in size and direction depending on the movement of the glacier.
When two vectors with different magnitudes and opposite directions are added :-- The magnitude of the sum is the difference in the magnitudes of the two vectors.-- The direction of the sum is the direction of the larger of the two vectors.
Assuming you mean sum and not some, the answer is No.
When two vectors are in opposite directions, their resultant is the difference between their magnitudes, with the direction of the larger vector. This means the resultant vector points in the direction of the larger vector and its magnitude is the difference between the magnitudes of the two vectors.

No, two vectors of unequal magnitude cannot have a sum of zero. The resultant of adding two vectors is determined both by their magnitudes and directions. If the vectors have unequal magnitudes, the resultant vector will have a magnitude that is at least as large as the larger of the two original vectors.
It is a displacement equal in magnitude to the difference between the two vectors, and in the direction of the larger vector.
i guess it makes the glacier bigger because it's picking up surface materials?
A glacier helps to form a valley in two ways. When the glacier moves through an area, it scrapes the land and pushes dirt in front of it, making a larger and larger hole that eventually becomes a valley. Runoff from the glacier as it melts also helps, as it carries soil away from the area, digging out a valley.
This glacier was much larger ten years ago.
Yes, anions have a larger radius compared to cations.
As the denominators (bottom numbers) are the same, the numerators (top numbers) can be compared and the larger number is the larger fraction. 6 is greater than 5 thus 6/10 is greater than 5/10.
