Can water molecules evaporate at the surface or below the surface?
water molecules can evaporate at the surface but not below the surface
Ground water exists below the surface of the earth?
The answer is false. Ground water is water retained below earth's surface. BELOW THE SURFACE.
What is Water that is below surface?
Ground water, or an aquifer.
What fraction on earth does water cover?
71% of Earth's surface
What is water found below the surface called?
ground water
The part of an iceberg which is below water is about seven times the size of the part above water What fraction of the iceberg is above water?
1/8 is.
Lighter than what you are made of More of you is hidden Than is seen?
An Iceberg Made of water but ice is lighter than water. Nine tenths of an iceberg is below the surface and so it is unseen.
What fraction of an iceberg is under water?
Nine tenths (9/10) of an iceberg is underwater.
What fraction of on iceberg is under water?
Typically, about 90% of an iceberg is underwater, while only about 10% is visible above the surface. This is because ice is less dense than seawater, causing most of the iceberg to remain submerged.
What are icebergs and how it made the Titanic ship broke?
They are chunks of floating ice drifting away from polar regions. The density of ice is just a little less than the density of sea water, so most of the volume of an iceberg is below the surface, and so a small-looking iceberg can have a huge volume of ice below the surface. The Titanic ran into an iceberg and was holed below its waterline so the water rushed in and the ship sank.
The relative density of seawater is 1.03 and of ice is 0.92. What fraction of an iceberg is above the surface of the water?
79% of an iceberg is underwater, so 21% or about one fifth is above it. However given the shape and size of an iceberg, as little as 10% can be above water at times, so it can be between one tenth and one ninth above water.
Is one half of iceberg above water?
1/8 of the iceberg is at the surface while the rest remains. This is an average iceberg (based on titanic)
Why is it hard to determine the size of an iceberg?
Because up to 90% of an iceberg's mass is found under the water's surface
What percent of an iceberg is below water and why?
Approximately 90% of an iceberg is below water because ice is less dense than water, so a large portion of the iceberg needs to be submerged to displace enough water and stay afloat. The submerged portion is what gives icebergs their stability and makes them less likely to tip over.
Can water molecules evaporate at the surface or below the surface?
water molecules can evaporate at the surface but not below the surface
What fraction of an iceberg of density 910kg per cubic meter would be above the surface in the sea where the density of sea water is 1170kg per cubic meter?
About 2/9ths of the berg would be above the water. Can you detail out?
What fraction of iceberge is below the water line?
Approximately 9/10 of an iceberg is below the water. The figure is approximate because the density of the berg depends on how must the ice is compacted and how much air it contains. It also depends on the density of the seawater which, in turn, depends on its salinity and temperature.
