Question

In a remote location near the North Pole, an iceberg floats in a lake. Next to the lake (assume it is not frozen) sits a comparably sized glacier sitting on land. If both chunks of ice should melt (and the melted ice all goes into the lake), which ice chunk would give the greatest increase in the level of the lake water, if any?

Answer 1

Glaciers not only transport material as they move, but they also sculpt and carve away the land beneath them. A glacier's weight, combined with its gradual movement, can drastically reshape the landscape over hundreds or even thousands of years. The ice erodes the land surface and carries the broken rocks and soil debris far from their original places, resulting in some interesting glacial landforms.

Answer 2

The correct answer to the following question will be "Glacier".

Step-by-step explanation:

• A large mass of frozen ground that flows very steadily through both the valley as well as spreads out through the middle. Throughout several centuries, glaciers have formed from compacted snow in places whereby snow builds up quicker although this melts.
• The iceberg has been on the bay, so there's no adjustment in a size equivalent to the whole iceberg.

So that the above seems to be the right answer.
