Re: Global Warming or NONE LIKE IT HOT!

Let me recapitulate, sun's energy output increases, coral grows heavier, heavier island sinks, perfect logic, I shall buy a dozen of these arguments right now!

I TEACH physics.
You teach physics? Well I sure hope it isn't anywhere in america.. I feel bad for your students.. once they take a REAL physics course then they will be behind everyone else.

The fact of the matter is you blatantly said that the volume of ice is equal to the same mass of liquid water. This is FALSE!

Truth: The volume of ice must be greater than the same mass of liquid water.

Here is an experiment for your dumbass to do: Make some ice cubes, you will notice that the ice takes up more space than the water. Put a coke in the freezer.. the water expands and the can will burst.

Perhaps you should just go kill yourself because you obviously know nothing about physics at all. You are an idiot, and the world would be a much better place without you.

Are you done throwing your childish temper tantrum? I assume you are calling this perfect English? Actually it stinks!

For people who does not believe in global warming and sea level rising, in india, two island vanished in the bay of bengal, near sunderban few months ago, around 7000 people were living in those island, they are the first global warming refugee, in few years this number will increase to millions !!
Sea levels have supposedly only risen by 1cm at most. Unless those islands where only 1cm over sea level i would say that there was another cause for those islands disapearing.

I went to look for the entire posting that MidiMagic wrote. I couldn't find it so I might be wrong, but I don't think so. I think he said (and I'm paraphrasing) "If an object is submerged, it's volume is equal to the volume of the water displaced". This is seminally obvious to anyone who thinks about it. It doesn't require a physicist or a physics teacher to figure it out. I think that your rage prevented you from reading what was actually written. But then I could be wrong.

Anyhow, please refrain from personal insults and demeaning language. It just makes you seem ignorant (at least that's my opinion).

That is true. But because the ice is FLOATING on water, the extra volume is the part sticking up into the AIR. 90 percent of a floating piece of ice is below the water level, but the other 10 percent is sticking up into the air. A floating body will displace its weight in water, with the rest of the volume of the floating body sticking up into the air. Otherwise, we couldn't have boats.

What I said was that AFTER IT MELTS, the water that used to be ice displaces the same amount of water that it displaced when it was ice. The extra volume in the ice displaces air, not water.

Now drop that ice into water, and notice how much of the ice sticks up above the surface of the water. It's EXACTLY the extra volume the ice has over that of the same mass of liquid water.

Re: Global Warming or NONE LIKE IT HOT!

The volume of time wasted with all of this worthless rhetoric is equal to that of the hot air displaced. (Not directed at anyone in particular).

Hoppy

P.S. "and there's a warm wind blowin' " and that's the real cause of it all.

Re: Global Warming or NONE LIKE IT HOT!

Not totally worthless, if you are a "climate" scientist, you can expect a large government grant from the EPA with this type of rhetoric.

Not the EPA, in this case, but you would appear to be correct, Facts notwithstanding, apparently.
