quicksand , to Ask Science in If you have some cold water evaporating, is it possible to make it evaporate sooner by adding hot water?

It would mostly depend on surface area available then. If you can add warmer water and also increase the surface area available to evaporate, then you could evaporate it faster

Go out there with a blow dryer or heat gun I guess lol. Adding more water isn’t gonna help you get rid of all the water. But I was curious if it was just a homework problem or what lol

It takes some time to adjust but the long weekend is worth it. I got a new job last year and am working 12s now. That adjustment is harder because there’s barely enough time to feed myself and get enough sleep before I have to go to work again.

Yes. But that’s not how salaries are determined. Based on that teachers and front-facing retail workers would be the highest paid jobs
