Answer:
370.37 days or 1.02 years
Explanation:
Given : Area = 900,000 m² ; velocity = 3 m/day ; Volume = 1 km³ = 1×10⁹ m³
The flow rate is given by : Q = Area * velocity
Q = (900,000 m²)*(3 m/day) = 2700,000 m³/day
The time required for ice to move past a given point is given by :
t = (1×10⁹ m³) ÷ (2700,000 m³/day)
= 370.37 days or 1.02 years
