A thermometer is removed from a beaker of boiling water and placed in a beaker of room temperature water. The thermometer takes 15 seconds to reach a reading of 25°C. The same thermometer is returned to the boiling water for several minutes. It is then placed under a tap of running water at room temperature. The thermometer takes only 10 seconds to reach a reading of 25°C. What conclusion could you make about conduction and convection based on these observations? A) Conduction is a more efficient method of heat transfer. B) Convection is a more efficient method of heat transfer. C) No valid conclusion is suggested by these observations. D) Conduction and convection are equally efficient methods of heat transfer.

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