This flat spot is called the contact patch, as illustrated here. If you were looking up at a car through a glass road, you could measure the size of the contact patch. You could also make a pretty good estimate of the weight of your car, if you measured the area of the contact ...
Antarctica is not only the coldest, but also the driest continent on the planet. While only coastal areas experience rain, mostly it comes in the form of snow or airborne ice crystals. An average of 150mm of precipitation (mostly in the form of snow) is measured pear year, with over 200...
