Pure water is NOT a good conductor because it has very few ions in it. However if you add a little salt to the water it does become a good conductor as the salt provides the ions required to conduct electricity.

How long does it take to heat water in a hot water tank?

If you just filled the tank on a 40 gal. about 30 to 45 min.


Why is the water is cold after the water tank was fixed?

Check temperature setting on tank , you may need to turn it from warm to hot. Make sure your water shut off valve is turned on above the hot water tank on the hot water side.Another possibility is the heating element:If you have a gas heater, did the pilot light go out? If so, relighting the pilot will take care of the problem.If you have an electric heater, was it restarted in the right order? (Don't turn the circuit switch on unless the tank is filled-- if tank is empty when power restored, the heating elements will burn out and need to be replaced.)


Does the boiler heat the water at first then supply it to the hot water tank?

No, a hot water tank heats water by itself.


How do you get water out of a gas tank?

You can use a fuel tank additive called "Heet." Basically, Heet is a type of alcohol which mixes with the water in your tank and allows your engine to burn it. Depnending on the amount of water the tank could need removed or drained.


How Does wave machines work?

Wave machines work by creating mechanical waves in a fluid, typically water, to simulate ocean waves. They consist of a tank filled with water and a mechanism—such as a paddle or a series of motors—that moves in a rhythmic manner to generate ripples or larger waves. The movement of the paddle displaces water, creating a wave that travels across the tank. This setup allows for the study of wave behavior and dynamics in a controlled environment.

Is a winter jacket is a better conductor than a tank filled with water?

No, a tank filled with water is a better conductor than a winter jacket. Water is a better conductor of heat compared to most fabrics used in winter jackets. This is because water has higher thermal conductivity, allowing heat to transfer more easily through it.


Is a winter jacket better conductor than a tank filled with water?

No, a winter jacket is not a better conductor than a tank filled with water. Water is a much better conductor of heat than clothing materials like those typically used in a winter jacket. This is why water is often used in heating and cooling systems to transfer heat.


Why is a tank filled with water a better conductor than a winter jacket?

A tank filled with water is a better conductor than a winter jacket because water contains free ions that can carry electric current more easily compared to the insulating properties of the materials in the jacket. The molecules in the jacket are arranged in a way that does not allow electric current to flow easily through them.


Why is a tank filled with water a better conductor of thermal energy than a winter jacket?

A tank filled with water is a better conductor of thermal energy than a winter jacket because water has a higher thermal conductivity compared to the insulating materials in the jacket. This means that heat can transfer more easily and quickly through water, leading to faster temperature changes. In contrast, the materials in a winter jacket are designed to trap heat and reduce heat transfer, making it a poor conductor of thermal energy.

What is a gallon tank?

It is a tank that will hold one gallon of water when filled to the brim. No tank is ever filled to the brim so the tank will never actually hold a gallon of water. It is not large enough to properly house any fish.
