What else can I help you with?
Does temperature have effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
Which current is caused by temperature differences in the water?
Density Current
Which substances when added to water will cause the greatest increase and decrease in water temperature?
Adding hot water will cause the greatest increase in water temperature, as it has a higher initial temperature. Adding ice will cause the greatest decrease in water temperature, as it absorbs heat from the water to melt and reach thermal equilibrium.
Does larger mass of water have different boiling temperature?
No. A large mass of water will have the same boiling point as a smaller mass of water. Differences in pressure, however, will cause differences in boiling point. - - - - - It takes longer to boil a large amount of water than a small amount because it takes longer to heat it up.
Why does the temperature of the zone of surface water decrease only slightly as depth increases?
The temperature of surface water is influenced by factors like sunlight, wind, and air temperature, which can cause variations. Where these factors are the primary source of heat, the temperature gradient in surface water may decrease only slightly with depth. Deeper water is insulated from these immediate changes, allowing it to maintain a more consistent temperature.
What are deep ocean currents caused by?
global winds and differences in temperature and salinity.
What term is defined as layering of water do to temperature?
Thermocline is the term used to describe the layering of water in a body of water due to temperature differences. It is a zone where the temperature changes rapidly with depth.
What is the weather cycle?
The weather cycle is a continuous cycle of air, water, and temperature the world over. The water cycle--evaporation, condensation, precipitation--is part of the cycle with pressure differences being caused by temperature changes.
What is the name of drastic changes in ocean temperature that cause weather changes around the world?
The major seasonal cause of water temperature change is due to the change in solar isolation in addition to currents and local hydrodynamics. Some more specific causes of water temperature variation in coastal waters may include: changes in the amount of river flow, discharges of 'cooling' waters from power plants, and changes in air temperature due to global warming.
What provides the energy to set ocean water in motion?
Differences in temperature, changes in wind/weather, the earth's rotation, the revolutions of the moon and radiation from the sun.
Does cohesion cause water to resist temperature changes?
Yes, cohesion causes water molecules to stick together, making it resistant to changes in temperature. This is because it takes a lot of energy to break the hydrogen bonds between water molecules, resulting in water having a high specific heat capacity and stabilizing its temperature.
Does temperature have effect on water's phase?
Changes in both temperature and pressure induce phase changes in water (and all other materials!).
Water temperature changes as much as atmospheric temperature?
false
Does the body temperature of a cold-blooded animal changes or remains the same as the temperature of air or water around it changes?
the body temperature changes because of its surroundings
Which current is caused by temperature differences in the water?
Density Current
What causes surfaces circulation?
Wind and temperature differences in the water.
How does energy transfers to water?
Energy can be transferred to water through various processes, such as heating, mechanical agitation, or electromagnetic radiation. When energy is transferred to water, it can cause the water molecules to gain kinetic energy, leading to changes in temperature, phase changes (such as boiling or freezing), or other physical and chemical changes.
