If the acumilation of ice during an ice age reduces sea levells by hundreds of meters then is it poible that this may cause the earth srotational speed to increase and possibly wobble more?

There has been research that has found that a redistribution of water mass as a result of more or less ice would change things like rotational speed or wobble. The changes are very minor, however, and a person would never notice even if they did live 20,000 years through an ice age. Also, there are other things that can have the same result, such as the redistribution of air (this is known as the global wind oscillation).

The accumulation of ice during an ice age can cause a minor increase in Earth's rotational speed due to a redistribution of mass, but this effect is very small and won't significantly alter Earth's rotation or cause it to wobble more. The impact on the Earth's rotation from ice age changes is not substantial compared to other factors.

When an exothermic reaction occurs will the products be hot to the touch?
Possibly. Some exothermic reactions such as combustion can release huge amounts of energy and these can increase temperature by hundreds of degrees; however, some reactions like corrosion do not release enough to be noticeable.
What could increase average global temperatures?
Global warming. Possibly pollution such as gas in a car.
What increases when there are convulsions in the cerebrum?
During convulsions in the cerebrum, there is an increase in abnormal electrical activity in the brain, leading to uncontrolled muscle movements and possibly loss of consciousness. The convulsions can also increase the risk of injury to the individual experiencing them.
What is likely to happen to sediments deposited by a river over hundreds or thousands of years?
Sediments deposited by a river over hundreds or thousands of years are likely to undergo compaction, lithification, and possibly uplift to form sedimentary rocks. These rocks may eventually be exposed by erosion or tectonic forces, revealing the geological history of the area.
How does the addition of heat to a liquid affect its average kinetic energy?
Adding heat to a liquid increases the average kinetic energy of its molecules. This increase in kinetic energy causes the molecules to move faster, leading to higher temperature and possibly phase change from liquid to gas if enough heat is added.
An increase in a firm's expected growth rate would normally cause its required rate of return to do what?
possibly increase, possibly decrease, or possibly remain unchanged
