Best Answer

The water in a building has a certain pressure, depending on how high the storage tank is. One tap opening has the full pressure acting on one small area, the size of the tap. If a second tap is opening the pressure acts on a wider area, so it is not so strong.

When water freezes does the thermal energy increases or decreases?

It decreases, it is less dense.A2.Any body can only pass thermal energy on to another body if the first is at a higher temperature than the second. Therefore when a body cools it has less potential to pass energy to another one. In addition, when water freezes it releases latent heat to the atmosphere (which of course must be colder than the freezing water), so that is another reduction in it's potential thermal energy.
