Why does water stick to the outside of a cup when it's hot?
Well, isn't that just a happy little accident! When a cup is hot, it warms up the air around it, causing the water vapor in the air to condense and stick to the outside of the cup. It's like a little dance between the warm cup and the cool air, creating a beautiful moment of condensation. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in nature.
How many ounces in 1 cup water?
1 cup = 8 fluid ounces, regardless of what's in the cup. Even if it's empty.
Why does it take longer to heat a bucket of water than a cup of water?
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.
Why a cup crack when it is filled with boiling water?
When a cup is filled with boiling water, the heat from the water caused the material of the cup to experience thermal expansion. If the cup is badly made, then different parts of it will expand to different extents and this will create stresses in the material of the cup causing it to crack.
What cup is easier to hold with hot water a plastic one or metal?
a styrofoam cup. i tried it on my science project
What part of the water cycle does the water on the outside of a cup show?
The water on the outside of the cup is an example of condensation.
When I pour cold lemonade in a plastic cup why is there water outside my cup and where did that water come from?
The cold lemonade cool the temperature of the plastic cup including the outer side of it. Thereby lowering the amount of water the air can contain, resulting in water condensating - attaching to the cup.
What is it called when water builds on the outside of a cup?
Condensation
Why is it that when a cold water is introduced into a cup water molecule are seen outside the body of the cup?
When you put cold water inside a cup, you cool the outside surface. If the temperature of the outside becomes less than the dew point of the air surrounding the cup, then condensation takes place. This appears as small drops of water on the outside of the cup. Dew point is a function of humidity and temperature. Dew point condensation is the same process that creates frost and fog in certain weather conditions.
Why would droplets of water form on the outside of a cup?
rain
Why does water not form on the outside of a cup when you have a hot drink?
Water does not form on the outside of a cup when you have a hot drink because the heat from the drink is transferred to the cup and prevents the air surrounding the cup from reaching its dew point and forming condensation. This is because the cup acts as a barrier, keeping the outer surface temperature above the dew point.
Would droplets of water form on the outside of a glass cup?
yes.
When a cup is sweating is the water colder or warmer than the outside?
A sweating cup is colder than the air which surrounds it.
How long a cup of water outside takes to evaporates?
This depends on many factors.
Why would drophlets of water form on the outside of a glass cup?
Assuming the glass cup held a cold liquid, the air closest to the cup will be colder than the surrounding air, causing water vapour in the air to condense into liquid water droplets.
When you put water in a plate then put a candle in the water and light it then put a cup over it and the water goes into the cup what is this called?
This is known as an experiment demonstrating the concept of water displacement and the principle of atmospheric pressure. When the candle burns inside the cup, it consumes oxygen, reducing air pressure inside the cup. The higher atmospheric pressure outside the cup forces the water up into the cup to balance the pressure difference.
Where did the water in the outer cup come from?
The water vapor in the air. Since the cup is so cold from the ice inside, the vapor in the air when it hits the cup it causes it to make the water on the outsaide of the cup. You'd think it came from the inside, but it doesn't.
