What else can I help you with?
Considering changes of state why does water in a wide flat shallow dish evaporate faster than the same amount of water in a the same amount in a tall narrow vase?
Water evaporate faster in a wide glass than in a narrower glass.
Why does water bead up on a waxed car but gasoline does not?
Most waxes are petroleum based, just like gasoline. Therefore, they have similar properties and mix, whereas water has significantly different properties, causing it to 'bead up' and form droplets on the surface.
What is the difference between cohesion adhesion and surface tension?
well Cohesion- water molecules are attracted to other water molecules. The oxygen end of water has a negative charge and the hydrogen end has a positive charge. The hydrogens of one water molecule are attracted to the oxygen form other water molecules.This attractive force is what gives water its cohesice properties. And Surface tension- Surface tension is the name we give to the cohesion of water molecules at the furface of a body of water. The cohesion of water molecules forms a surface "film" or "skin ." Some substances may reduce the cohesive force of water, which will reduce the strength of the surface "skin of the water
What is the curved surface of water in a burette called?
The curved surface of water in a burette is called the meniscus. It is caused by the surface tension of the water interacting with the walls of the burette.
Does clean water evaporate faster then dirty water?
yes it does. The evaporation rate of water is dependent on the number of molecules that can be presented to the evaporating surface. Anything in the water besides water will decrease this density and slow the process of evaporation.
Why do fish appear on the surface of the water before a storm?
Before a storm, there is very little dissolved oxygen in the water, so fish rise to the surface for oxygen,which is more plentiful near the surface.
Does a storm surge bring cooler and drier air?
No. A storm surge is a bulge on the surface of a body of water created by a strong storm such as a hurricane. The storm surge can bring coastal flooding.
Is it true that high wind is called storm surge?
No. A storm surge is a bulge on the surface of a body of water created by strong winds.
What can you infer about the density of the ocean water at the surface in that area right after the storm?
jewish holdiday
Is surface tension and surface water the same?
yes
Function of a downspout in a roof drainage system?
To receive the storm water from the roofing surface and dispose of the water in a place unobjectionable
How do storm surges relate to cyclones?
Cyclones, particularly hurricanes and typhoons, create a bulge on the surface of water with their winds. This storm surge can cause heavy coastal flooding if the storm makes landfall.
How would an increase in storm runoff to rivers most likely affect ground water?
An increase in storm runoff to rivers most likely would affect ground water by reducing the amount of infiltration and groundwater recharge. This is where water moves downward from surface water to ground water.
Is surface tension and water tension the same?
yes
Is the same amount of water is being lost from the surface?
Of and as?
Is stormwater or storm water the correct spelling?
storm water
What forces of nature create a storm surge?
Storm surges are created by high winds pushing at the surface of the ocean. This happens offshore and causes water to rise higher then ordinary sea level.
