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.

∙ 14y agoHot water moves in the direction it has been pushed or pulled just like any other water.
Hot water added to cold water or water being heated will feature a convection current. In a convection current hot water rises upwards.
When water is heated the water molecules get more kinetic energy. This kinetic energy means that they move faster and further. This in turn means that there are less water molecules per unit area; a lower density. Things that have a lower density have less mass than an object made of the same matter with a higher density which means hot water will float on top of cold water.

First, hot water gets all the more heated.
Then, when the boiling point (100o C) is reached, the heat goes in the conversion of the state from liquid to gas. The temperature remains constant during this time as the heat is utilised in overcoming the intermolecular forces.

Does hot water or cold water particles move faster?
hot water molecules move faster with food coloring.you can experiment it with the help of following steps:-Fill the glasses with the same amount of water, one cold and one hot.Put one drop of food coloring into both glasses as quickly as possible.Watch what happens to the food coloring.If you watch closely you will notice that the food coloring spreads faster throughout the hot water than in the cold. The molecules in the hot water move at a faster rate, spreading the food coloring faster than the cold water molecules which mover
Does boiling water have oxygen in it?
No,boiling water does not have oxygen . Cold water molecules move slowly meaning there is space between the molecules for more oxygen to dissolve. Hot water molecules move rapidly meaning the space between the water molecules is less avalible for the oxygen molecues to dissolve into.
A transverse wave cause its medium to move in what direction?
Perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
Do gas molecules move slower when they are cooled?
Yes, the hotter atoms are, the faster they more.
Why does warm water rise and cold water sink?
Actually you are wrong, its vise versa, hot water rises and cold water sinks. This is because when water molecules gain energy, they become hot. Molecules try to move away from one another. And this leads to reduction in density. Since density of water reduces as it becomes hot, how water moves up and cold water sinks down.
In what direction do hot and cold gases move?
Up, hot air rises.
How did the pecten move?
The pecten is a comb-like structure found in the eye of birds. It is believed to move by contracting and relaxing muscles to change its shape, allowing it to actively adjust its position within the vitreous humor of the eye for optimal light filtering and vision.
In what direction does heat move in during conduction?
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.
In freshwater ecosystems does water move constantly in one direction?
In a river or stream, the flow of water is in one direction only.
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.
Do molocules move faster in hot or cold water?
Hot water, because they have more energy.
What happened to the kinetic energy of the hot water and cold water particles?
the particles of the hot water decreased by -20 which means that they where 480 calories transferred out of the hot water and the cold water increased 20 which means that they were 480 calories transferred into the cold water.
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 do molecules in hot water move faster than in cold water?
Temperature is a measure of molecular motion. Fast molecules are hot. Molecules that move slowly can always be "heated" and then they will move faster and thus will be hot.
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.
