If the ice is floating (North Pole), then water levels do NOT rise when the ice melts.
If the ice is on land (Alaska, Greenland, Antarctica) then the ice melting will cause sea levels to rise.
Because there is more water in a bucket than in a cup, and more energy has to be put into the bucket of water than the little cup of water to bring them to the same temperature.
Salt affects how fast ice melts in a cup of water. When you add salt, the melting process will be faster but it will only affect the part of the ice cube that comes into contact with salt.
Oh, dude, 1 cup of ice makes about 1/2 cup of water. It's like magic, but not really. Ice just takes up more space than water because of its solid form. So, if you melt that cup of ice, you'll end up with less water than you started with. Science, man.
No, it wouldn't. a sugar cube would melt a lot faster in a cup of Hot water. the hot water helps it desolve more evenly than cold water.
1 cup = 8 fluid ounces, regardless of what's in the cup. Even if it's empty.
They are both one cup. The water weighs more though.
Yes, the water has turned into ice. It was a liquid but it is now a solid. You can change it back again by melting it.
A cup of boiling water since it has higher temperature. Note that heat transfer depends more on the temperature.
tap water
a cup of water that is boiled since it gives more heat.

yes a plant can grow in a cup of water unless you put some tissue in the cup to squeeze the seed in to having more water which provides them more nutrition
The cup.
James wants to find out whether a cup of salt water or a cup of fresh water will freeze more quickly. What is the best way for him to determine this
I'd have to say yes if the cup is in sunlight for example. Just like when you wear different colored shirts outside. A darker cup will absorb more light, and a lighter cup will reflect more light. The light energy converts into heat energy. Therefore, a darker colored cup would make water get warmer faster in light.
Water is an amorphous liquid; it takes the form of any structure that contains it. Pouring water into a cup would result in a cup filled with "cup-shaped" water.
its one cup
