When a rock is placed in a graducated cylinder containing water the height of the water will?
The height of the water will rise a level equal to the volume of the rock.
If you add water to sand does the volume density and mass change?
Well, honey, when you add water to sand, the volume will likely increase, but the density and mass will depend on the proportions of water and sand you mix. If you add just a little water, the density may increase slightly due to the added mass, but if you add a lot of water, the density will decrease because water is less dense than sand. So, the volume changes, but the density and mass can go either way depending on how much water you throw into the mix.
If a 10ml cylinder had a piece of potato that made the water level in the cylinder increase to 16ml what is the volume of the potato?
6 cu.ml
What is the principle is involved in determining the volume of sand in water?
You can very accurately determine the volume of sand using water. If you just take some sand and measure the volume, a lot of the volume you measure is actually the empty space between the sand crystals. If you want the true volume of the sand, you must use the water method.To do this, start with a known volume of water (use a graduated cylinder for instance). Record this volume. The weigh out a certain amount of sand, and add this sand to the water. When you do that, the volume of the water will increase. Record this new volume. Then simply subtract the initial volume from the final volume. This difference is the volume of the sand particles. You can also calculate the density of sand by this method since you weighed the sand before adding it, and the density is just weight ÷ volume.
What will change when some water is poured into a measuring cylinder?
The volume reading on the measuring cylinder will increase due to the addition of the water. The meniscus, or the curve at the surface of the water, will form and the volume measured will be the amount of water that was poured in.
Why do gardens mix sand into soil that have high constraints of clay?
This is the increase the level of porosity. Having more sand content allows for the soil to absorb water faster, shed excess water faster, and increase the soil's ability to take in oxygen and nitrogen.
What hold heat longer the sand or water?
Sand typically holds heat longer than water because sand has a lower heat capacity than water, meaning it requires less energy for its temperature to increase. This allows sand to retain heat for a longer period of time compared to water, which has a higher heat capacity and can lose its heat more quickly.
When sand and water are exposed to the same radiation sand becomes hotter than water. Why?
Sand has a lower specific heat capacity than water, which means it requires less energy to increase its temperature. This results in sand absorbing more heat from the radiation compared to water. Additionally, water has a higher heat capacity, so it absorbs and retains heat more effectively than sand.
What do you mean by Bulking of sand?
Bulking of sand means increase in it's volume due to presence of surface moisture . The volume increases with increase in moisture content . The volume may increase up to 20 to 40% when moisture content is 5 to 10 %.Due to moisture in each particle of sand, sand gets a coating of water due to surface tension which keeps the particles apart. This causes an increment in volume of sand known as Bulking.
What is the volume of a metal cylinder weighing 18.03 grams if you put it in 15mL of water and it rises to 21.4 mL?
The increase in volume of the water when the cylinder is added is equal to the volume of the cylinder. So, the volume of the cylinder is 21.4 mL - 15 mL = 6.4 mL. Since the metal cylinder is immersed in water, the volume of the metal cylinder is 6.4 mL.
What happens to the volume when water is added to a beaker filled with sand?
When water is added to a beaker filled with sand, the volume of the mixture will increase, but not proportionately to the amount of water added. This is because the water fills the spaces between the sand particles, allowing for some of the water to displace the air pockets while still contributing to the overall volume. As a result, the final volume will be greater than the initial volume of the sand alone, but less than the sum of the individual volumes of sand and water.
Sand is in water?
No. The water is in the sand.
