The heat from hot water in a water heater dissipates after time. Most newer hot water heaters only heat water when necessary. Older hot water heaters try to maintain a specific temperature for the hot water on a constant basis.

In which direction does air move: from hot to cold or from cold to hot?

Air moves from hot to cold.


In water waves water particles move in?

Water particles (molecules) move transversely to the direction of propagation of the wave. That means that as the wave moves out across the water, which is its direction of propagation, the water molecules move up and down (transversely) to create the crests and troughs of the wave.


Is the direction in which hot water flows determined by whether it is left or right?

No, the direction in which hot water flows is not determined by whether it is left or right. The direction of flow is typically determined by the design of the plumbing system or the force of gravity.


Do molocules move faster in hot or cold water?

Hot water, because they have more energy.


In what freshwater ecosystems does water move constantly in one direction?

In a river or stream, the flow of water is in one direction only.

Which direction should I turn the faucet handle to get hot water: left or right?

Turn the faucet handle to the left to get hot water.


In which general direction is the hot and dry air mass most likely to move?

The hot and dry air mass is most likely to move in the direction where lower pressure systems exist. This typically means that it will move towards areas with cooler temperatures or where moist air masses are located.


Which direction should I turn to find the hot springs?

To find the hot springs, you should turn towards the direction where the water is warmer than the surrounding area.


In general direction is the hot and dry air mass most likely to move?

the hot and dry air mass are most likely to rise


Do hot and cold water molecules move at the same speed?

Hot water molecules move a lot faster han cold water molecules because they have a higher kinetic energy due to the heat.


Why does cool water move slow?

Cool water moves slow because the molecules are moving slow. In hot water, molecules are moving fast, thus, hot water seems to move faster than cold water at times.
