Break the Ice! How does ionic interference affect the strength of ice?
| Challenge: | Discovery | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Carlton Trail | | City: | Wakaw, SK, Foam Lake, SK | | School: | Wakaw | | Abstract: | The strength of ice is a concern for many people in our society - from curlers, hockey players, ice-road truckers to ice fishers. Our project investigates the parameters of ice strength by attempting to generate a mathematical relation between electrical resistance of water samples and the strength of ice produced from the sample. Our initial results show the possibility of generating a useful relation. |
