The person does not sink into the snow because the force acts on a larger area so that the pressure is less
The edge of the sharp knife has a smaller area so the force acting on the knife produces a larger pressure
Answer: <u>elastically</u> deformed or <u>non-permanently</u> deformed
Explanation:
According to classical mechanics, there are two types of deformations:
-Plastic deformation (also called irreversible or permanent deformation), in which the material does not return to its original form after removing the applied force, therefore it is said that the material was permanently deformed.
This is because the material undergoes irreversible thermodynamic changes while it is subjected to the applied forces.
-Elastic deformation (also called reversible or non-permanent deformation), in which the material returns to its original shape after removing the applied force that caused the deformation.
In this case t<u>he material also undergoes thermodynamic changes, but these are reversible, causing an increase in its internal energy by transforming it into elastic potential energy.</u>

Therefore, the situation described in the question is related to elastic deformation.
Answer:Water Only
Explanation:
Given
vessel is insulated therefore no heat can be added or removed i.e. heat exchange is zero
If hot water at 
is mixed with cold water at 
then at equilibrium vessel contains only water and final temperature of water will be between and
Heat released by hot water is equal to heat gain by cold water .
