QuestionIf the ice on a pond is 0.03 m thick, how thick would it be if it were 10 times thicker?

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The current thickness of the ice is0.03 meter. The ice is to become10 times thicker

STEP 2

To find the thickness of the ice if it were10 times as thick, we multiply the current thickness by10.
$New\, thickness = Current\, thickness \\times10$

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given value for the current thickness to calculate the new thickness.
$New\, thickness =0.03\, meter \\times10$

STEP 4

Calculate the new thickness.
$New\, thickness =0.03\, meter \\times10 =0.3\, meter$ The ice would be0.3 meter thick if it were10 times as thick.
