If a boat loaded with ice is floating in a swimmers pool and if the ice is thrown into the pool will the water level in the pool after the ice stops bobbing up and down stay the same rise or fall?
You'll most likely die in this situation.
When ice melts does its volume increase or decrease?
Water is more dense than ice. That's why ice floats in water. As the ice melts, the water level rises, but it never gets as high as the highest peak of the floating ice was.
Why does the sea level drop during times when ice covers large areas of the Earth?
i guess that this happens because the water freezes and so instead of the water being liquid like, it becomes ice. making the sea levels drop at right about the time water starts being turned into ice.
What geographical event made the sea level drop to reveal the land bridge between asia and america?
The ice age! This made the water level drop by turning lots of water into icebergs. Just as people say global warming will make sea levels rise as the icebergs melt, ice ages do the exact opposite: making sea levels drop while storing water in icebergs & glaciers.
What was the earth's sea level during the ice age?
Earth's seal levels drop during periods of glaciation, and are dependent on the amount of water locked away in the glacial ice.
A glass full of water contain ice cubes floating in it .What will happen to the water level when ice melts?
When the ice melts the water level will rise. The water level will increase because Ice is frozen water and when the ice melts, it turns to water, which means more water will be added to the glass.
What is a th difference between solids and liquids?
Take a block of frozen water (ice) and drop it on your foot - ouch!. Then drop the same amount as water on your foot. I know I would prefer to drop water on my foot that solid ice.
What will be the flow of heat when you drop a block of ice in boiling water?
The heat will flow from the boiling water to the block of ice.
Why does ice melt faster in soda than in water?
Each liquid has a different melting and boiling point. If you place ice (frozen water) into a glass of water, then the water's temperature can only drop to 32 degrees and it will begin to melt. If you drop ice (pure frozen water) into Sea Water(water with salt), then the Sea Water can drop below 32 degrees. So it will take longer for the ice to warm up enough to melt. It has to do with the freezing point of the liquid it is in.
What will happen if ice in kept in glass of water does the level of water will rise or not?
yes, becuse when ice melts it becoms water.Answer:When ice is added to a glass of water the level will rise. After that, as the ice melts the level will decline. When water freezes it expands, so when it thaws back to a liquid it shrinks.
Why does sea level rise and fall during interglial and glacial periods?
The reason why sea levels drop during the glacial era is because that ocean water gets locked up in the ice caps. Sea levels drop due to the removal of large volumes of water above sea level in the icecaps
Is it true that a pool of water and a piece of ice are in different states of matter?
Yes, it is true. Water is liquid state and ice is solid state.
