Question:
How do mountain glaciers and continental glaciers differ in terms of dimensions, thickness and patterns of movement?
Answer:
<span>
Continental glaciers are thicker, much more expansive sheets. Mountain glaciers flow downhill as a result of gravity acting on the mass of ice. Continental glaciers move in response to pressure from the weight of material in their thick midsections.

Answer:
The answer depends on what object you are dropping. Are you dropping a balloon or a car? (I'm joking 'bout that one.) If the mass of the object is very little, then it might drop slower. If the mass is bigger, then it might drop faster.
Good luck!
Explanation:
Answer: Relative motion
Explanation: If two objects are moving either towards or away from each other with both having their velocities in a reference frame and someone is outside this reference frame seeing the motion of the two objects.
The observer ( in his own frame of reference) will measure a different velocity as opposed to the velocities of the two object in their own reference frame. p
Both the velocity measured by the observer in his own reference frame and the velocity of both object in their reference is correct.
Velocities of this nature that have varying values based on motion referenced to another body is known as relative velocity.
Motion of this nature is known as relative motion.
<em>Note that the word reference frame is simply any where the motion is occurring and the specified laws of motion is valid</em>

For this example of ours, the reference frame of the companion is the train and the telephone poles has their reference frame as the earth.
The companion will measure the velocity of the telephone poles relative to him and the velocity of the telephone pole relative to an observer outside the train will be of a different value.
