Because there is more water in a bucket than in a cup, and more energy has to be put into the bucket of water than the little cup of water to bring them to the same temperature.

How do you cool water faster by putting ice into water or a bucket of water into ice?

putting ice into water: the ice and water are in contact with each other over a large surface area this allows more efficient heat transfer. putting a bucket of water into ice: Energy in the form of heat must pass through the bucket to the ice which is more difficult. Also the is less contact area with the solid ice sitting against the bucket than if water was in contact with the bucket. This is why when u make an ice bath to cool something down in you add water, it increases the contact area.


What does water take longer o do than land?

Water takes longer to heat up and to cool down then it does for land.


Does the amount of water affect when the water boils?

yes. the more water the longer it would take for the heating element to heat the water. the less water, the less time it would take to heat.


Does it take longer for water to cool or heat up?

It takes longer to cool off, but mostly depending on the temperature.


When you add an object in water why does it take longer to heat up?

because the object needs also to heat up


How do you convert calories to degrees Celsius?

You don't, because they measure different things. Temperature (degrees Celsius) describes how deep the heat is in something, whereas energy (calories) describes how much heat energy you put into it in order to make it that deep. -- I have a bucket of water on the table. -- I take a small cup, I dip a cup of water out of the bucket, and I place the cup on the table next to the bucket. -- The water in the bucket and the water in the cup both have the same temperature. -- I want to make the cup 10 degrees warmer, and I also want to make the bucket 10 degrees warmer. -- I'll need to add more calories of heat to the bucket, and fewer calories of heat to the cup, to raise both temperatures by the same number of degrees.


Who is the original inventor of pulleys?

A farmer who used to take out water bucket by bucket from a deep water well.


Why would a glass of cold water reach room temperature faster than a bucket of cold water?

It takes less time to cool or heat a galls of water because there is less water. If it was a spoon of water it would take less time than a bucket. It is all about amount.


Why does water take longer to melt than tomato sauce?

Because when you are cooking sauce it's thicker then water so it takes longer to heat.


Why does it a take a full kettle of water to boil longer than a half full kettle?

The more water in the kettle, the longer it will take to reach boiling point. This is why it is wasteful in energy to boil a full kettle if you only want to brew a small cup of tea.


Why does it take water longer to cool down?

Because the specific heat of water is very high. In fact, water has about 1400 times more heat carrying capacity than air.


Why does the ocean take longer to heat up and longer to cool down?

The high heat capacity of water means that it requires more energy to increase its temperature, leading to a slower rate of heating. Additionally, the mixing and circulation of water in the ocean contribute to a delayed cooling process as heat is distributed throughout the water mass.
