Cold water is dense and will sink. As the water warms up, it becomes less dense and will rise to the surface.
Cold water moves fast and will sink. As the water warms up, it slows down and will rise to the surface.
Warm water moves fast and will sink. As the water cools down, it slows down and will rise to the surface.
Warm water is dense and will sink. As the water cools down, it becomes less dense and will rise to the surface.
