Reading a digital thermometer is more preferable because you can just easily read the measurement from a screen, a number will just show in a screen as compared to a liquid-based thermometer where you still have to read the measurement by counting the markers in the thermometer. Hope this helps! Mark brainly please!
The correct answers are <span>starting friction and </span>static friction
Friction slows down all forces, but starting friction slows down or stops completely the start of motion.
The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given,
Temperature, T = 0°C
Initial mass, Mi = 62kg
Speed, s = 5.48m/s
Distance, x = 26.8m
Friction is present.
Mass of ice melted = ?
We know,
The amount of energy required for the melting of ice is exactly equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block of ice
and

Therefore, 
KE = 930.94 Joules
Ice melting lateral heat is 334 kJ/kg = 334000 J/kg.
Therefore, the melted mass of the ice = 930.94 / 334000 = 0.00278 kg = 2.78 g.
Thus, The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g
