When water is heated the temperature eventually reaches a constant value and forms a plateau on the graph what does the plateau indicate?

The boiling point.


When water is heated the temperature eventually reaches a plateau what does the plateau indicate?

This indicates that that the water is changing form from a liquid to a gas.


When water is heated the temp reaches a constant value and forms a plateau on the graph what does the plateau indicate?

It indicates that the temperature does not change during the phase change from liquid to gas until the change is complete. During the phase change, the heat energy added to the water goes into breaking hydrogen bonds between water molecules, so it does not cause an increase in temperature during that time.


What is terminal motion?

the constant speed that a freely falling object eventually reaches when the resistance of the medium through which it is falling prevents further acceleration.


What is ion product constant?

Ion product constant is essentially when something reaches equilibrium. Such as in the case of water. When water reaches its ion product constant it becomes both a base and an acid, reaching equilibrium.


What is a underwater plateau off coast of a continent?

An underwater plateau off the coast of a continent is a shelf. There is a very distinct drop off point if a person reaches the edge of the plateau, assuming the water is shallow enough to wade. A plateau might consist of several shelves at various depths, something like stairs.


What will happen if object falls from great height through air of uniform density?

It will fall faster and faster for a while - until it eventually reaches a "terminal speed", at which air resistance and gravity are in balance. After that, it will continue falling at a constant speed.


Why do the nuclear reactions in a decay series eventually stop?

Because the daughter isotope eventually reaches a stable state.


Does tea cool at a constant rate?

Yes, assuming that the environment in which the tea is "living" stays a constant temperature. Tea will cool at a constant rate, until it reaches the temperature of the environment (but it will not get any colder than this).


What happens to covection currents when a fluid reaches a constant temperature?

As the fluid warms:The currents speed upThen as the temperatures of the fluid equalise (the fluid becomes one temp) the currents slow downWhen the fluid is one temperature the currents stop


What happens when an object reaches terminal velocity?

It stops accelerating, and falls the rest of the way at constant speed.


What is the plain that extends through northern Argentina between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean?

The "Altiplano" or high plains, is a plateau that reaches from Argentina northwest to Peru.
