Why would melting the Arctic ice cap not cause a rise in sea level on its own?
If you put an ice cube in a glass of water the water level will rise because the cube displaces the water. Now if you check the water level after the cube melts, it will be the same. So ocean levels will not change if floating chunks of ice melt. However, If the ice is on land and melts and the water runs into the ocean, that will increase the water level.
When you step into a very full bath or hot tub sometimes the water overflows But when you step into a lake and swim you don't notice the level of the water rise at all Explain why this is?
The water in the lake WILL rise, but the lake is so much larger, the change will not be visible to the naked eye.
What exerts a strong pull on water in the ocean?
The Moon's gravitational pull on our planet causes the ebb and flow, (rise and fall), of our earth's oceans.
Does ice melting make more water in a cup of water?
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.
How do you measure volume of a material?
One way to measure volume of a material is the following: Put the material in a waterproof container, e.g. a tub. Submerge the material in water, register the water level, take the material out and measure what volume of water you need to add to the tub in order to make the water rise to the level it was with the material in. The volume of water you've added equals the volume of the material.
Why causes the water level rise when Into the bath?
because the ice at north and south pole has melt
When a rock is placed in a graducated cylinder containing water the height of the water will?
The height of the water will rise a level equal to the volume of the rock.
What is it called when rise in the water level causes overflow ito dry land short lived?
It is called a flood.
Why does the level of water in wells increase after it rains?
When it rains, the water seeps into the ground and replenishes the groundwater stored in the aquifers. This causes the water level in wells to rise as the aquifers become saturated with the additional water.
When the anchor is thrown into the water will the water level in the pool drop or rise?
The anchor displaces water and the water level will rise.
Why does the water level rise after a tsunami?
A tsunami is a series of ocean waves caused by a large displacement of water, usually from undersea earthquakes or landslides. As the waves move through the ocean towards land, they push a large amount of water along with them, causing the water level to rise significantly when they reach the shoreline.
What causes the water level rise when you put an object in a graduated cylinder?
When you put an object in a graduated cylinder, the water level rises because the object displaces water equal to its volume. This is known as Archimedes' principle. The increase in water level corresponds to the volume of the object that is submerged in the water.
What should I do if my toilet float sticks and causes the water level to rise too high in the tank?
If your toilet float sticks and causes the water level to rise too high in the tank, you should try adjusting the float arm or replacing the float mechanism to fix the issue. If you're unsure how to do this, it's best to contact a plumber for assistance.
If a graduated cylinder has a current water level of 30 ml and you add an object which causes the water level to rise 53 ml what is the volume of the object you placed in the water?
The volume of the object placed in the water is 23 ml. This can be calculated by subtracting the initial water level (30 ml) from the final water level (53 ml).
How did the growth of glaciers affect water level in the oceans?
when glacier runs into the ocean it causes the water level to rise. just like when we add ice cubes to a glass of water. but when the icebergs melts water level remains the same. like when the ice cubes melt in a glass of water. it does not increase the amount of water in the glass. global warming is causing glaciers to run into the ocean causing water level to rise.
Why doesn't the water vapor rise above these other gases to a higher level of the atmosphere?
The cool atmosphere condenses the rising water vapor and causes it to fall back to Earth
What causes water to rise?
the melting of ice or glaciers
