What kind of density current is caused by muddy rapidly flowing mixture of sediment and water?
A turbidity current is a density current that occurs when mud or silt mixes with seawater. This is the result of the increase in the density of the water itself.
Which current is caused by temperature differences in the water?
Density Current
Does volume density or mass change when water is frozen then heated?
The density of water changes at different temperatures. As temperature goes up, density goes down.
Turbidity current density results from water mixing with what substance?
Turbidity refers to the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid. Turbidity current density results from water mixing with sediment particles.
Does changing the volume of water chang the density?
Density = mass / volume. So if the volume changes, the density will obviously also change.
What kind of density current is caused by muddy rapidly flowing mixture of sediment and water?
A turbidity current is a density current that occurs when mud or silt mixes with seawater. This is the result of the increase in the density of the water itself.
When is water's density at its greatest?
The maximum density of water occurs at a temperature of 4°C
What is the density of 300 milliliters of water with 108 milliliters of water?
The density of water does not change when the volume changes. This is because density is a proportion of weight to volume. The density of water changes with temperature, but is approximately 1g/ml.
What happens to water as it changes state?
The density changes.
Does the density of water changes as it changes from a liquid to a gas?
yes it does
How are density and byonancy?
Buoyancy is a force is water that occurs in water in objects.
Which current is caused by temperature differences in the water?
Density Current
When water changes from liquid to a gas it is what?
Condensation occurs when water changes from gas to a liquid.
Does the volume of water change the density of water?
Density = mass / volume. So if the volume changes, the density will obviously also change.
What occurs when liquid water changes to water vapor?
evaporation
How would this cold water cause a density current?
Cold water is more dense than warm water so the cold water has to sink to the bottom which causes a density current.
What are density currents?
A density current is where a warm current floats on top of a cold currentA density current is where a warm current floats on top of a cold currentThe movement of a mass of cold, dense ocean water as it sinks beneath warmer surface water.
