What did the temperature drop by in the ice age?

average global temperature, about 5C lower than today. local temperatures in some places fell far more, while a few areas warmed some.


How much has earths temperature risen in the past 100 years?

The earth's average global temperature has risen 0.75 degrees Celsius (approx 1.3oF) in the last hundred years.A:The earth has warmed by 0.9 degrees Fahrenheit in the past 100 years. A:0.82 degrees Celsius.Approximately 0.6 degree Celsius.


What does water do when it is warmed?

When water is warmed, its molecules gain energy and the temperature of the water increases. This causes the water molecules to move faster and further apart, leading to expansion in volume. If the temperature increase is sufficient, the water may reach its boiling point and transition into a gas (steam).


Why is the air you breathe out is warm?

The air you breathe out is warm because it has been warmed by your body as it passed through your respiratory system. When you inhale, the air is warmed up to body temperature in your nose and airways, and this warm air is then exhaled back out.


How much has the earth warmed in the past 100 years and is that a big deal?

In the past 100 years there have been three rates of temperature rise:From around 1910 to 1940 there was a rise of 0.35 degrees Celsius.From around 1970 to 2015 there was a rise of 0.55 degrees Celsius.Between 1990 and the present there has been an increased rate of warming, and 11 of the hottest years on record have occurred in the last 12 years.This is a big deal. Almost one degree Celsius already. Scientists are hoping that the amount of greenhouse gases already in the atmosphere will not raise the temperature by 2 degrees. They agree that 2 degrees of warming is about all we can tolerate without serious deaths and difficulties. However many scientists say we are too far advanced and there's no way we can NOT reach 2 degrees and even higher.There is no one thermometer that measures the world's temperature. Every day thousands of thermometers all over the earth take measurements. This happens on land, on the oceans, and from satellites. These temperatures are all averaged out to produce an estimate of a global monthly average temperature.

Why won't it shift into last gear until warmed up on 2009 Toyota Yaris?

The engine has to be at a minimum operating temperature for emissions purposes. By holding the transmission from going in the last gear (overdrive) it keeps the RPMs up and the engine heats up faster. Usually occurs when the outside temperature get below 50 degrees.


Why does the temp not change as water is warmed up?

If water is warmed up, then that means that its temperature does change.


What happens to liquid oxygen when it is warmed?

When liquid oxygen is warmed, it evaporates and turns back into gaseous oxygen. This is because the boiling point of oxygen is -183 degrees Celsius, so any increase in temperature above this point will cause it to change state.


Does water expand when warmed?

Yes, water expands when it is warmed. As the temperature of water increases, the molecules gain energy and move faster, causing them to spread out and take up more space, resulting in expansion. This is known as thermal expansion.


What is the operating temperature for a 1992 Chevy s10 pickup with air conditioning?

Once its warmed up the average temperature should be about 190 degrees. If its any hotter you might want to check your cooling system. The EGR valve can also effect your temperature


Air from the outside is?

warmed, moistened and cleaned by the nose and mouth


Why is the air you breathe out warmer than the air you breathe in?

When you exhale, the air has been warmed by your body during the breathing process. As you breathe in air, it first enters your nasal cavity, where it is humidified and warmed to body temperature. This warmed air then moves to your lungs for gas exchange, and when you exhale, that warmth is transferred to the exhaled air.


What is the temperature range for a 2000 Chevy s10?

The temp gauge should read ambient temp when cold and top off at 200 degrees F when fully warmed up.


Can a sample of water maintain the same volume after being warmed by several degrees Celsius?

No, a sample of water will expand and increase in volume when warmed by several degrees Celsius due to thermal expansion.


Why don't the ice caps on mars flood when they are warmed up on mars?

Mars' ice caps are made of water and water doesn't melt until 33.0579 degrees Fahrenheit and the average temperature on mars is -80 degrees Fahrenheit, for most of the planet.BUT...The Ice Caps are located at the southern most point of mars, where the average temperature is -250 degrees Fahrenheit.


What is known as climate?

The temperature around us is weather. The temperature trends over years and a large area is climate. For example the weather may be cold today. The climate though has warmed almost 0.2 degrees in the past 150 years in this area.


Why is air warm when you exhale?

It is usually warmer, but not always. The temperature of the interior of your body is about 98-99 degrees Fahrenheit. So when you breathe in air that's cooler than that, the air is warmed by your lungs, and so it's warmer when it comes out. However, if the air you're breathing in is hotter than your body temperature, like say 105 degrees in the desert, the air will actually be cooled by your lungs, and will come out cooler than when it went in.
