The force that snow exerts on an object.
Approximate Density of Snow x Volume of Snow x Force of Gravity.
That would be for a point load, for any practical application you would want to calculation the pressure, so calculate the total volume of snow and divide by area.

∙ 13y agosnow and ice are different because ice is compacted and snow is frozen water droplets so the particles spread out.
add Snow will commonly have a density of less than 0.1, whereas ice will have a density close to ( but less than) 1.0. For ice floats on water - remember.

What is the differences between ice cap and tundra?

What is the difference between ice cream and Hawaiian ice cream?
hawaiian ice cream is pretty much snow cone and ice cream is ice cream
What is the difference between an ice berg and a glacier?
an ice berg is a chunk off off a glacier and a glacier is a big ice patch caused by snow
What periodic element does snow have that ice doesn't?
There is no compositional difference between snow and ice; only structural. They are both composed of water, though snow needs to form around a nucleus which can be any number of substances.
What the difference between snow sleet and hail?
Snowflakes are lighter than the more frozen denser hail.

What is the difference between shaved ice and a snow cone?
The diffference between it is that sno cones are like little chunks of ice with flavoring that tastes like water. Shaved ice there is no ice chunks and it has WAY more flavor!! It's so much better!
What is the difference between a skiff of snow and a trace of snow?
They are the same
What's the difference between snow and frost?
Frost is a form of deposition and requires a surface (on the ground) to form its ice crystals. Snow can only form in clouds - the ice crystals grow around condensation nuclei and then fall to the ground. Frost is confined to the ground.
What is the difference between a snowmobile and a snow machine?
The difference is where you live.
