What else can I help you with?
Does cool water freeze faster than warm water?
Absolutely. Water must achieve a temperature below 32°F before it can freeze. The closer the water is to room temperature, the quicker it will freeze. There is a phenomenon in which warm water freezes and cold water not: In some regions(e.g. Siberia) it is possoble to pour boiling hot water to the ground and it will freeze even before it hits the bottom. This is possible as hot water's molecules are moving more heavily than those of cold water. Therefore the surface of the water is bigger and warmth can leave the molecules faster. I remember a report of a experiment at one of the university's found hot water froze faster by a inute.
Is water always moving?
Water is always moving in some form, whether it be through the water cycle (evaporation, condensation, precipitation) or in bodies of water due to currents and tides. Even in a seemingly still body of water, there is usually some level of movement or circulation occurring.
Will purified water freeze?
Yes. Very, very pure water may remain liquid below the normal freezing point until a nucleation point (a speck of dust, an irregularity in its container, or even just a shock wave from being jostled) is added, but it will definitely freeze.
In a solenoid, will there be a magnetic field if there is no current flowing through it?
Yes, a solenoid will still have a magnetic field even if there is no current flowing through it.
Does pure water freeze faster than regular water?
Yes pure (distilled) water will freeze faster than tap water because any impurities lower the freezing point. Regular water has minerals dissolved in it (such as calcium phosphate, and iron) and will freeze at a very slightly lower temperature than completely pure water.
Why moving water does not freeze?
Moving water does freeze, but at a lower temperature than still water. This is due to the mechanical action of moving water continuously breaking up the formation of ice crystals, which is why rivers and streams can appear to flow even in cold temperatures. However, when the temperature is low enough, even moving water will eventually freeze.
Will PVC pipe bust in a hard freeze?
Almost any pipe, that is filled with water that is not moving, could burst if it's freezing. In some cases even moving water could. The plumbing should be sealed off from the pool and "blown out" (emptied) before winter.
Why do you have a wetland?
there is no way of "having" a wetland. wetlands form when standing water gathers at some place. that means when flowing, or moving water stops and gathers someplace a wetlaand may form. they can form anywhere even mountain slopes.
Why surface of water freeze at 0 but under water not freeze even at 4c?
Because 4 degrees Celsius is higher than 0 degrees Celsius
Does water stop moving?
Water is always in motion due to factors such as gravity, wind, and the water cycle. Even in a seemingly still body of water, there are microscopic movements occurring due to thermal energy and molecular interactions. So, in general, water does not completely stop moving.
Why can't you warm or freeze water bottles?
Yes you can I have it on good authority that you can freeze anything. You can even freeze your posterior off in really cold weather. So be careful!
What happens to the molecules if they freeze?
well obviously atoms cant stop moving even at absolute 0. so the molecules will simply slow down but it can never stop moving
Why do orange farmers dump water onto the trees and allow it to freeze?
Farmers have found that flooding the roots before a hard freeze helps keep the tree alive, even if the leaves freeze.
What keeps blood moving in a circuit through the body even when the pressure is relatively low?
your heart is a pump and keeps the blood flowing
How can a river keep flowing even if theres a drought?
The water flowing in a stream or river is fed by numerous smaller streams, which are fed by even smaller streams that collect water from melting snow or ice up in the mountains, from springs, and possibly from human wasterwater sources. The bottoms of rivers are also below the water table in many places, so there will always be water at that level.
Does water in a water tower freeze when it is cold?
It would have to be awful cold for an awful long time for a water tower to freeze solid. The water is typically moving most of the time as it flows in and out. Water being pumped into the tower is going to be above freezing. And the large mass of water makes it pretty hard to get that cold. In colder climates, they may even have some sort of heating device, it only has to keep the water above freezing. And I'm sure the top edges get some freezing around them. ASS yes it could, anything could happen!!!
Why does not all ice at the poles freeze?
By definition, ice is frozen water. If it doesn't freeze it isn't ice.There is no liquid water at the south pole. The north pole is generally frozen as well, but bear in mind, the freezing point for sea water is much lower than that of pure water. Salt is a type of anti-freeze. So during the summer, you can have open water even at the north pole.
