noah created a model of a glacier to help explain how glaciers change the surface of Earth. He froze two large blocks of ice. One block was pure water. The pther was water mixed with sand and rocks. He took both blocks and rubbed them across a sheet of tinfoil. The block of pure water slid smoothly over the tinfoil. The block with sand and rocks ripped the tinfoil in many places. How does Noah's model explain how glaciers change Earths surface?

The model is depicting the glacier erosion.

Explanation:

The glaciers are responsible for causing erosion of the earth. They transport the materials away from the locations were they are earlier situated. They carve the materials present beneath the land. They erode the materials like soil, pebbles, boulders, against the pressure of the unstable mass of the ice moving down the slope. The broken ice mass carriers away the broken rocks, materials and soil debris far away from the places where they have been originally situated. This causes the glacial erosion. Also the broken and displaced rocks displace the soil and other materials come in contact with during erosion.

According to the given situation, the ice formed with water only had no impact on the tinfoil on the other hand the ice containing the sand and rocks removed the tinfoil from places. This is because of the friction created by the sand and rocks on the tinfoil. The glacier material like ice, soil, rocks due to friction erode the material come in contact with it with an appreciable pressure underneath.
