Why is the pressure under water greater than the pressure at the surface?
The weight of air in the Earthâ??s atmosphere is 1 kg per square centimeter at sea level. The pressure under water is greater that the pressure at the surface because of the water pressing down heavily.
Water becomes steam at what degrees?
Water becomes steam at 100 degrees Celsius under normal atmospheric pressure.
Why does an inflated balloon kept under the sun burst after some time?
The heat from the sun causes the air molecules inside the balloon to expand, increasing the pressure within the balloon. If the pressure becomes too high, the balloon will burst to release the excess pressure.
What happens when an object becomes under pressure?
When an object is subjected to pressure, its molecules are pushed closely together, resulting in a decrease in volume. Depending on the material, the object may deform, compress, or change its physical properties. Excessive pressure can lead to structural damage or failure of the object.
Why does in air pressure crush objects such as your desk?
Air pressure can crush objects like a desk because the weight of the air above the object creates a force pushing down on it. As the air pressure increases, this force becomes stronger, causing the object to collapse under the weight.
When heat and pressure is applied to any rock it becomes what?
It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.
When heat and pressure is applied to any rock it becomes?
It becomes hot and under pressure. At some stage, with sufficient heat and pressure it could become a metamorphic rock.
Why air does not come from tire when it is under pumping?
The pressure from the pump is greater than the pressure within the tyre
Would expect pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of mercury?
if you were to immerse yourself under a meter of mercury the pressure experienced would be greater than if you were to immerse yourself under a meter of water.
What metamorphic rock becomes under heat and pressure?
this is called a ingneous rock
Why is pressure 500 feet under the ocean greater than the pressure 500 feet under the great lakes?
The pressure under the ocean is greater than under the Great Lakes because the density of seawater is higher than freshwater. Seawater is also influenced by the weight of the water column above due to the depth of the ocean, leading to higher pressure.
The fluid pressure 10 ft underwater is the fluid pressure 5 ft underwater?
No, the fluid pressure increases with depth underwater. The pressure at 10 ft underwater will be greater than the pressure at 5 ft underwater due to the weight of the water above exerting a greater force at greater depths.
Why is the pressure under water greater than the pressure at the surface?
The weight of air in the Earthâ??s atmosphere is 1 kg per square centimeter at sea level. The pressure under water is greater that the pressure at the surface because of the water pressing down heavily.
What term best describes a gas under greater than atmospheric pressure?
The term "compressed gas" best describes a gas under greater than atmospheric pressure. This typically refers to gases that have been compressed into a smaller volume using pressure vessels.
Water becomes steam at what degrees?
Water becomes steam at 100 degrees Celsius under normal atmospheric pressure.
Can rocks be recycled?
Any rock can become a sedimentary rock (even another sedimentary rock) is it is broken down by erosion, and the resulting sediment is then redeposited, undergoes compaction and consolidation and then lithification (lithification is just the process of becoming a rock)Any rock can become a metamorphic rock if it is subject to sufficient pressure and temperature as a result of deep burial (which will result in both high heat and high pressure) or mostly pressure e.g from the pressure of two continental plates colliding.examples - mudstone under high pressure becomes slateLimestone under moderately high temperature and pressure becomes marble.Granite under intense pressure and Temperature short of actual remelting becomes a gneiss, if the greiss undergoes even greater pressure and temperature it can become a schist.Finally, any rock subject to sufficient temperature as a result of very deep burial will melt, become magma, and ofthe magma them eventually cools enough to crystallise you have a new igneous rock
Why kites ascend in flight?
In an air flow the pressure above the kite is lower and the pressure under the kite is greater; as a result the kite ascend to lower pressures.
