q.if two copper vessels of mass 20g and 50g are heated to 85 degrees celcius and are put onto similar ice blocks, what is the ratio between the depths they will sink into the ice?

The ratio between depths refers to the relationship between the depth of two objects, in this case, the depth that two objects will sink into ice.
The ratio between depths is calculated by dividing the depth of one object by the depth of the other object. For example, if one object sinks 10 feet into the ice and the other sinks 5 feet, the ratio between depths would be 2:1.
The main factors that affect the ratio between depths when sinking into ice are the weight and surface area of the objects. Objects with a larger surface area and/or greater weight will sink deeper into the ice compared to objects with a smaller surface area and/or lighter weight.
Yes, the ratio between depths can vary for different types of ice, such as fresh water ice, salt water ice, and glacier ice. Each type of ice has different properties that can affect how deep an object will sink into it.
The ratio between depths can be useful in scientific research to understand the properties of different types of ice and how objects interact with them. It can also help with predicting and preventing potential hazards, such as sinkholes or ice collapses.
