What happens to the water on the wet hair when you use a hairdryer?

The water evaporates it is heat up by hairdryer and it turn into gas. called water vapor/


What happens to the temperature of an object when it loses heat energy?

When an object loses some of its heat, its temperature decreases (gets lower).


Is energy transferred when water boils?

Yes, as water boils the temperature of the boiling water no longer rises. The energy from the heat source that is boiling the water is however STILL there. What happens is that this energy is taken away by the water vapor leaving the boiling water surface. This energy is called "LATENT HEAT". The latent heat is given up again when the water vapor condenses back to liquid water so the water vapor caries the heat from one place to another. It is this energy that powers Hurricanes.


Which heat is stored in water vapour?

The heat is stored in water vapour is latent heat.Latent heat describes energy that is not stored as the internal energy (i.e. temperature) of an object but in its phase state.For example, in the atmosphere heat that is transported by an air parcel that contains more water vapor than its surroundings. Because energy is needed to turn water into water vapor, water vapor is a way for a body to store energy (along with potential energy, kinetic energy, and sensible heat). If the water vapor is returned to a liquid or solid phase (by condensation or sublimation), the stored energy is released as sensible heat.


What is difference between dry heat and moist heat?

Dry heat is the absolute substance temperature without accounting for the modulating effects of water vapor in the substance. Moist heat is the relative substance temperature when accounting for the modulating effects of water vapor.

Occurs when water vapor changes to liquid water?

Its a change in energy primarily. Water vapor loses energy and then becomes liquid. The energy it loses generally is heat. For example, Put water vapor in a sealed container in a freezer, it will change from vapor to liquid, then liquid to solid as it loses energy in the form of heat


What happens to water vapor when heat energy is reduced?

It condenses forming water.


When does matter change state?

when water gains or loses heat, it changes its state. When liquid water gains heat, it changes its state from liquid to gas. It becomes water vapor. When solid gains heat, it melts an changes its state from solid to liquid. When gas loses heat, it condenses into liquid. Gas, to liquid. When liquid loses heat, it becomes solid


What is meant by condenstation?

Condensation is the process by which a gas or vapor changes into a liquid as it cools. This occurs when warm air containing water vapor comes into contact with a surface that is cooler than the air. The water vapor then loses heat to the cooler surface and transforms into liquid water.


What happens if you add heat to water?

it explodes, just kidding. It turns into a water vapor or most commonly steam.


What happens to water during condensation?

The warm water vapour loses heat to the sky and condenses into water droplets, forming clouds.

Why does warm air hold more water vapor then cold air?

Because Water vapor is why the air is warm More specifically the Evaporation/precipitation cycle puts heat into the air via water vapor carrying heat from the surface of the earth into the air If the Surface is hotter then more evaporation happens and in turn more heat gets into the air with the associated humidity

How does ice to water to water vapor?

Heat causes the ice to melt into water and the water evaporates into vapor.


When you heat water it become what?

vapor


What does evaporation of the sea water do to the hurricane?

Evaporation of sea water does absolutely nothing for a hurricane except provide water vapor. When the water vapor turns back to water in the form of rain it gives off heat. Hurricanes are massive heat engines. As long as they have water vapor to turn into heat they can continue blowing along. Without water vapor, the hurricane has no source of heat.
