Question 73
In this experiment, you will investigate how rising temperature can affect sea level.
Experiment 1
You will need: two large measuring cylinders, a funnel big enough to hold 10 ice cubes, 20 ice cubes all the same size.
Method
1 Put 10 ice cubes into one of the measuring cylinders. Add water so that the cylinder is about three quarters full. Record this level.
2 Add water to the second measuring cylinder to exactly the same level as in the first one.
3 Place the funnel in the second measuring cylinder. Put 10 ice cubes into the funnel.
4 Leave both cylinders at room temperature, until the ice melts.
5 When the ice has melted, record the new levels in both measuring cylinders.
