Question:

A tremendous force is generated when water freezes into ice and expands in volume by 9.0%. Suppose a 1.000-m3 cube of liquid water freezes into ice that is 1.000 m on a side by 1.090 m tall. How many 68-kg students would the ice be able to lift? Determine this by calculating the amount of force on the top 1.000-m2 face that would be required to squeeze 1.090 m3 of ice back to 1.000 m3, assuming all of the volume change occurs along the vertical direction?
