Does volume affect water pressure?
Yes, the more the water the greater the pressure of all the water pushing down on other water.
What causes water pressure in the ocean?
It is the weight of the water pressing down from above. The greater the depth the greater the pressure.
When swimming under water pressure becomes greater?
Yes. The water pressure exerted on your body is greater than air pressure, and increases with depth.
Does mercury exert more pressure than water?
mercury exerts more pressure than water bcause mercury is a metal and water is a non metal obviously mercury weighs more than water
Relationship between liquid pressure and density?
If you were submerged in a liquid more dense than water, the pressure would be correspondingly greater. The pressure due to a liquid is precisely equal to the product of weight density and depth. liquid pressure = weight density x depth. also the pressure a liquid exerts against the sides and bottom of a container depends on the density and the depth of the liquid.
Does volume affect water pressure?
Yes, the more the water the greater the pressure of all the water pushing down on other water.
Why does water pressure increase with surface area and fluid density?
the greater the surface the greater the volume of water thus more preassure
Can water exert pressure on a submarine?
Yes, water exerts pressure on the hull of the submarine.
What happens when a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied on pure water?
It is compressed and occupies a smaller volume.
Why water exerts pressure?
The same reason bricks exert downward pressure. Gravity.
Why water exerts downward pressure?
The same reason bricks exert downward pressure. Gravity.
Why is water a liquid at room temperature with a molar volume of 18mL and at 105 degrees C and 1 ATM pressure it is a gas with a molar volume of 30L?
the 30L water vapor sample is a gas gases exert pressure on their surroundings thus taking on the shape of their containers the gas is under 1 ATM of pressure so it exerts pressure in return and the volume becomes 30L when the presures are equal if the temperature were to decrease to room temperature, the water vapor would condense to a liquid and the volume would decrease liquids have a volume but no definite shape while gases have neither a definite volume or shape
Why does erosion of a riverbed increase so much during flood times?
There is a much higher volume of water, and increased speed in a river that is in flood. This increase in force will move stones and boulders, scouring the river's bed.
If you swim beneath the surface in saltwater will pressure be be greater then freshwater?
salt water weights more for a given volume than freshwater and that causes the increase in pressure
100 grams is always equal to 100 cubic centimeters?
100 grams of water at standard temperature and pressure has a volume of 100 cubic centimeters or 100 millilitres. The volume of 100 grams of any other substance will depend on its specific gravity or density: if less than that of water, it will have a greater volume; if greater than that of water, it will have a smaller volume.
Which has greater volume water or alcohol?
alcohol has a greater volume because when you combine the two substances together water will desolve
Does water with a greater volume cool faster than water with a less volume?
NO
