Question:
The physical property of density and the processes of density stratification and convection are critical to an understanding of plate tectonics and many other aspects of oceanography.
Part I. Define density and explain the differences among density, mass, and volume.
Part II. Take a clear glass coffee cup or Pyrex measuring cup and fill it two thirds with hot coffee (do not spill on yourself and use heat resistant glass)
a) Slowly pour a few tablespoons ofcold half & half or cream into the coffee. Don't use too much --- like what you would normally add.
b) Describe and explain what happens over the next five minutes. Explanation of what occurs is key to understanding density stratification.
c) Observe the mixture from the side and the top occasionally for an hour and explain what you see.
d) Submit photos --- and explain what you see.
(The coffee will be cold at the end of an hour -- so you may want to make yourself some fresh coffee)
