Why is it that if I put an ice cube in a glass of water and turn the glass, the ice cube does not rotate with it?

The same reason your body moves forwards when you’re standing in a bus and it brakes – inertia. All objects want to stay in their current state. What moves, wants to continue moving and what doesn’t move, wants to stay that way. Only when enough force is applied, their movement is changed.
