How do ice skaters glide so smooth across the ice?
The weight of a skater is concentrated in the thin blades of the skate, which exert enough pressure on the ice to cause some of it to melt. The water then lubricates the skate, which moves almost frictionlessly across the ice. Even without lubrication, ice tends to be quite slippery. So as long as the skater can remain balanced, the movement is quite smooth.
What type of friction pushes us a skater ahead?
