What is a natural hot spring that occasionally sprays water steam above the ground?

A hot spring that naturally shoots steam and boiling water is called a geyser.


If beaker a had 250ml of water beaker b had 500ml water are warmed from 10 celsius to 20 celsius what one requires more heat?

Because there is a greater volume of water in beaker B, the beaker would have to be heated for a longer period of time to reach the same temperature as beaker A. If your desire is to have both beakers warmed to the same temperature at the same time, beaker B would require the addition of more heat (because there is more water inside it).


What is the relationship between a water table and a well?

If you want to get water out of your well, you need to drill down below the water table in able to pump it out. That should be kind of obvious. The only other neat point that you make is that if the topography dips below the natural water table, then the water in the aquifer (the rock holding the water) will be exposed at the surface. This is called an artesian well, and this is what makes the famous desert oasis happen.


Why are the upper layers of water in a deep well are cool but those in a pond are warm?

Water is warmed by sunlight. The pond gets more sunlight and is shallower, so that there is less water to heat.


What does changing air pressure do to an empty water bottle?

When you pour in the hot water, it takes up all of the space inside the bottle (since it is a fluid). When you pour out the hot water and quickly put on the cap the air pressure inside the bottle is less than the air pressure outside causing the bottle to implode on itself. I'm not really sure about pouring cold water on after, maybe someone knows the answer to that part. But if you try doing it you can probably figure out what the answer is! Actually: When you pour the hot water in, and then out of the bottle the air that rushes in to replace the water is warmed by the water, and the warmed sides of the bottle, causing it to expand and some air leaves the bottle. When you then cap the bottle and let it cool to room temperature the air inside contracts, but because the cap is on no air can get back in to even things out. This causes the pressure inside the bottle to drop. Because the outside air pressure is higher than that inside the bottle, the bottle will chrush in, if it is plastic, until the bottle is small enough that the two pressures are equal. Pouring cold water on the bottle just amplifies the contraction of the air inside the bottle causing an even more pronounced effect. Note that this can be hazardous if you use glass, because the glass will not bend or crush but appear normal until the pressure difference gets to high and the glass simply implodes all at once.

I predict that it is coming from the pressure under the ground that makes it warm.

Granted pure water has no calories but how many does spring or well water with natural minerals have?

None. Spring water has a higher level of minerals, but minerals are not calories.


What is the difference between drinking water natural water and spring water?

Well, first of all natural water would probably be dirty and unfiltered, such as a natural pond and lake. Spring water would be manufactured out of spring water and would be much cleaner at that. If the natural water you are thinking of is different then this answer the natural water you are thinking of is probably everyday water that you drink, and more than likely doesn't come from a spring. Spring water also is found in a water bottle, and natural water can be found through faucets at home. Because your water is natural, isn't it?


Is still water the same as spring water?

No, still water and spring water are not the same. Still water simply means water that is not carbonated or sparkling, while spring water comes from a natural underground source such as a spring. Spring water may have different mineral content and taste compared to filtered or purified still water.
