Inertia.

An object at rest stays at rest unless acted on by an outside force. While you turn the glass, you only turn a small amount of the fluid inside - that part closest to the glass.

The ice, being massive and solid, is only weakly acted on by the moving fluid. It takes a lot of fluid to get it to move.

So, inertia keeps the ice in position.

Why does boiling water spin objects?

Boiling water creates convection currents, where hot water rises and cooler water sinks. When you place an object in the boiling water, the convection currents cause the object to spin as the water moves around it.


The spin on a washing machine takes out 35 percent of the water in clothes the clothes in washing machine contain 3 pint if water How much water is left after a spin?

After the spin, 65% of the water remains in the clothes. To find out how much water is left, first calculate 35% of 3 pints (0.35 x 3 = 1.05 pints), then subtract this amount from the initial 3 pints to get the remaining water (3 - 1.05 = 1.95 pints).


How does water spin out washing machine?

Water spins out of a washing machine during the spin cycle due to centrifugal force. As the drum rotates at high speed, the water is pushed towards the sides of the drum, and then drained out through small holes. This helps to remove excess water from the clothes and facilitates the drying process.


Which processis used in washing machine to squeeze water from cloths?

The process used in washing machines to squeeze water from clothes is called the spin cycle. During this cycle, the drum rotates at a high speed to force water out of the clothes, allowing them to dry faster.


What does a rinse and spin mean on a washing machine?

A rinse and spin cycle on a washing machine refers to a setting that rinses the clothes with clean water after the main wash cycle, followed by a quick spin to remove excess water before the clothes are ready to be dried. This cycle helps to ensure that detergent residue is removed and that the clothes are left clean and fresh.

Will a whirlpool washer spin if not hooked up to water?

Yes, a Whirlpool washer can still spin even if it is not hooked up to water. The spin cycle is primarily a mechanical function that doesn't require water to operate. However, some models may prevent the spin cycle from starting if they detect that the door is not properly closed or if other safety mechanisms are triggered. Always consult the user manual for specific model information.


Why will an ice cube placed in a cup of hot rotating water spin automatically faster than the water itself?

the center of a whirlpool is spinning the fastest. the cube is in the center so its spinning equal or a lil slower than the water directly under it but the water neer the edge of the cup is spinning slower.....put something in the toilet, flush it and observe how it spins faster as it reaches the center...........use something that wont clog the toilet

Can a beyblade spin on water?

No, a Beyblade cannot spin on water because it requires a solid surface to grip onto in order to spin effectively. Water is not solid enough for the Beyblade's tip to create the necessary friction to spin.
