Conduction is what transfers the heat in this process. The fast moving particles in the hot electric coil collide with the slow-moving particles in the cool pot. The transfer of the heat causes the pot's particles to move faster. Then the pot's particles collide with the water's particles, which in turn collide with the particles of the spoon. As the particles move faster, the metal spoon becomes hotter.
some examples of conduction are: 1.using a metal stove to cook food 2.making a glass blower's pipe 3.cooking on electric stove top 4.making a car radiator 5.closed circuit steam engine
it would evaporate into the air in the room
'nothing, it's like putting a spoon in a hot soup' Wrong ^ As the metal spoon is a better conductor of heat than the air the hot water (or soup) and the spoon as a larger surface area with the air (or active sight) it transfers heat to the surrounding faster, thus cooling the hot liquid faster.
yes if its boiling yes
Heat is transferred into the metal spoon from the hot liquid, and it will soon be at the same temperature as the liquid because the spoon's heat capacity is quite small compared to the water surrounding it.
Convention
how hot does a pot belly stove get in side
Boil it in a pot on a stove.
The spoon gets hot - Relax, this is perfectly normal.
When you hand touches the hot handle of a pot. When you touch an ice cube and it melts in your hand. When the spoon touches hot water and the spoon gets hot. When the spoon touches cold ice cream and the ice cream melts.
Convection. The hot water at the bottom of the pot rises to the top.
The spoon would probably be made of medal.
by convection and the particles go slower
As the stove heats up the pot, heat is transferred from the pot to the water through conduction. Within the pot, heat is transferred through convection from the hot water molecules to the cold ones.
No. A crock pot is what you use for slow cooking roast and such. A hot plate is essentially a portable stove burner.
