What makes a freezer stop working?
damage to the heat pump
Does heat always flow from cooler objects to warmer?
Heat always flows from warmer objects to cooler objects, unless you have a device (like a heat pump) to prevent this. The natural tendency is for two or more objects at different temperatures to eventually all have the same temperature and this is accomplished by heat flowing from the warmer objects to the cooler objects.
What is the name of flowing electricity?
Flowing electricity is called electric current.
Are all heat sources light sources?
No.Ligtning is not a heat source.Unless u think that the electric of the lightning have heat.<<Previous answer:Yes.Fire is a heat source and a light source. If you were meaning light bulbs, then yes again. The electric current flowing through the filament (excuse spellings) causes the wire to glow (creating the light) and generate heat. This is caused by the resistance in the wire. Even tiny little leds generate heat and light. I may be wrong here.... but I dont think any light source does not generate heat of some kind. Heat is light radiation in the near and far infra-red range. You can have light sources that generate very very very little infra-red light, for example flourenscent lights produce light in the visible range almost exculsively BUT yes all light sources do produce some heat as an unavoidable energy loss.>> Lightning is a heat source. It is electricity rapidly flowing through a column of ionized air. Thunder is the shock wave it generates in the atmosphere. Think of the crackling noise a static filled blanket makes. Move it in the dark and you can see the static letting go - like lightning in miniature.
What are the dangers of using coal in generating electricity?
Electricity is most often generated at a power station by electromagnetically generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by chemical combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. So if the electromagnetically generators were to mix with the kinetic energy of the flowing water there will be so many bad damages if you were near the reaction.
When does heat stop flowing from the pan to the egg?
when you close the heat off and let it cool down.
When foes heat stop flowing from the pan to the eggs?
Equal temperature
When two bodies are on contact heat flows from the hotter body to the colder body when does heat stop flowing?
When the temperature of each body is the same.
When does air stop flowing in the lungs?
When you stop breathing.
How do you stop your menstrual from flowing?
You cant!
What is the opposite of the word flowing?
stop
What is a pattern of flowing heat?
a convection current
When does thermal energy stop flowing?
When the heat is traveling in the form of radiation, there's no reason for it to stop as long as the source is active. In the conductive and convective situations, the flow of heat from one material or object to the other stops when their temperatures are equal.
Will the convection currents stop flowing if the pot is no longer heated?
It'll stop flowing when all of the material has reached th same temperature.
Does heat energy flow indefinitely?
No, heat does not flow indefinitely. Heat stops flowing the temperatures are equal.
Movement of heat energy by flowing material?
Convection
What is the name for heat flowing through solids?
Conductors
