Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average o

cean temperatures rise. To get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºC. Note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)

Answer:

69×10⁻³ m

Explanation:

The linear thermal expansion coefficient for water is α = 69×10⁻⁶ K⁻¹.

Thermal expansion equation:

α ΔT = ΔL / L

Given ΔT = 1.00ºC = 1.00 K and L = 1.00 km = 1.00×10³ m:

(69×10⁻⁶ K⁻¹) (1.00 K) = ΔL / (1.00×10³ m)

ΔL = 0.069 m

ΔL = 69×10⁻³ m

Answer:

1. the force which can be felt or act only when two objects are in contact is known as contact force.

for example: frictional force, muscular force,

tension, air resistance .

2. the force which can be felt or act even when two objects are in contact or not is known as non-contact force.

for example: magnetic force, gravitational force, electrostatic force.

What is the difference between chemical change and a physical change?
NeX [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are several differences between a physical and chemical change in matter or substances. A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. In a chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
