If it is very Old Plumbing it could be the 'packing' around the shaft of the valve. Lots of graphite? If its fairly new plumbing, could be the washer coming apart inside the valve, or pipe residue. Is the water on the hot side getting harder to trun off? More twist pressure to stop the drip? Then I would say its the (seal) washer on the end of the valve shaft. This can be replaced fairly easy on newer plumbling. A deep socket type plumbers tool removes the valve, after the water is turned off of course.Maybe on here there is a 'how to fix a drippy faucet' FAQ, Check that out, or Google it.

Considering that air contains a huge number of water particles in it, no. Unless you are in the desert or it is below freezing, there are water particles in the air. If you breathe out in the cold you see a fog coming out of your mouth. That fog is cause by water particles you are breathing out.

How does heat affect the particles in a balloon?

when a balloon is filled up with air and then heated. remember that the particles of air are free to move. so when it is heated the particles will gain more energy and they stars to move faster. when there is too much energy between the particles they escape by popping the balloon. the more heat the more faster the particles move. it wil be the same process if the ballon is filled up with water and then heated.(water and air particles are heated up by convection currents.) if you heat just a ballon then the ballon will melt because of the property of the meterial it is made of. hope i helped:)


Which is a cause of density currents?
