What would happen if you put a drinking straw into a half-filled cup of water?

The straw would displace the water in the cup, causing the water level inside the straw to rise above the water level in the cup due to atmospheric pressure. The water would remain at a stable height as long as the straw remains in the cup.


Which piece of equipment would be best for separating the sand from the mixture?

Depends on the mixture, but if it were sand and water you could use filtration paper or just boil the water to make it evaporate leaving only sand behind. If you wish to take the iron out of the sand grab a magnet and your sand will be clear! This separation technique is called magnesium. If you are separating the sand from a lighter solute (solid) like sawdust use flotation. Place them in water and the sand will drain down to the bottom whilst the sawdust will float on top.


What would happen if you put dried fruit in a cup of water?

If you put dried fruit in a cup of water, the fruit would absorb the water and rehydrate, becoming softer and plumper. This can enhance the flavor and texture of the dried fruit, making it more enjoyable to eat.


When you Place A Cup Of Sand And A Cup Of Water In The Sun Which One Will Heat Up Faster?

The sand is most likely to heat up faster, particularly if it is dark. The water will have some evaporation, which will keep it cooler. It can also vary by how it is subjected to the sun's heat, like a flat pan or a colored cup, or clear vessel.


What would happen if you put a cup of water in a closet for a couple of days?

If left stagnant, the water in the cup may become stagnant and develop a musty smell. Mold or mildew may start to grow in the cup or on the surface of the water due to the lack of ventilation. It could also attract bugs or other pests.

What would happen if the stirred each of these cups faster water and sand?

If you stirred the cup of water faster, the water molecules would move more rapidly, creating more turbulence and possibly generating waves or splashing outside the cup. If you stirred the cup of sand faster, the sand particles would move more vigorously, possibly causing some of the sand to spill out of the cup due to the increased momentum and force.


Is a cup of water less or greater than a cup of sand?

1 cup of water is the same volume as 1 cup of sand.


How would you separate water from sand?

OK so yuo have to get a coffie filter then get a cup pour gently to the filter then thats how you seperate water or if you what to get only sand not water you just put both in the cup and heat it and the water well evaporatve and you only have the sand.

If you place a cup of sand and a cup of water in the sun which one will heat up faster?

The cup of water will heat up faster than the cup of sand because water has a higher specific heat capacity, meaning it requires more energy to increase its temperature compared to sand. Sand, being a solid, has a lower specific heat capacity and will heat up more quickly.


What is heavier a cup of water or a cup of sand?

The mass of a volume of a material depends on its density. A cup of water is likely to have less mass than a cup of sand, because the density of rock is generally much greater than water, and sand is fine particles of rock.Sand can be packed into a cup at different densities, but even if only lightly poured into the cup, the air between the sand particles will not be sufficient to make the density lighter than that of water, as most rock is at least twice as dense as water.Some rocks are apparently less dense than water: they even float! But, this is because they have trapped air bubbles in them which lighten them, and once ground into sand, they will be much denser as the air is no longer trapped within the rock.Some examples of densities are:water 1 g/cm3granite 2.7 g/cm3sandstone 2.3 g/cm3


What are examples of things you can measure in a cup?

Cooking ingredients, liquids, sand etc. The most common would be water and other liquids.


When was Cup of Sand created?

Cup of Sand was created in 2003.


Why does sand sink in water?

Sand and water both have weight and both have volume. A cup (volume) of sand weighs more than an equal volume of water. So the sand pushes the water out of the way and sinks. A cup of wood chips weighs less than an equal volume of water. So the water pushes the wood chips out of the way and they float. Try it and see.
