The large container has more water than the small container so it must have more thermal energy than the small container

How much energy is needed to keep one gallon of water from freezing?

None. When water freezes it _releases_ energy (the heat of fusion, 333.55 kj.kg). To keep it from freezing, simply keep the energy constant. If the ambient temperature is below zero C (32 F) the rate of energy loss will depend on the temperature of the air and the thermal resistance (insulation value) of the water's container, and other factors such as wind speed. In those conditions you must replace the energy lost to prevent the water from freezing. However, the energy needed depends on the rate of loss, not on the amount of water.


How do you keep water heated to a constant temperature?

You can keep water heated to a constant temperature by using a water heater with a thermostat that monitors and regulates the temperature. Insulating the water tank can also help maintain heat. Additionally, using a recirculating pump or a tankless water heater can help ensure a constant supply of hot water.


What is the best way to distribute heat in water?

kinetic energy turns into heat energy which heat's the water SLOWLY (keep frantically moving) ;D


Is water hotter just before it boils?

Yes, water is typically hottest just before it boils. As the temperature of the water increases, the molecules move faster and create more energy, leading to higher temperatures. Once the water reaches its boiling point, further energy input causes it to transition into a gas.


What happens if you keep adding salt to the water?

Adding salt to water increases the water's boiling point and decreases its freezing point. This makes it boil at a higher temperature and freeze at a lower temperature. Additionally, the salt dissolves in the water and increases its salinity, affecting its taste and buoyancy.

Does it take more energy to keep steam at 30 psi or 15psi?

It takes more energy to keep steam at 30 psi because higher pressure requires more energy to maintain the temperature and pressure of the steam. More energy is needed to overcome the increased resistance at higher pressures.


Do clouds influence temperature?

Yes, clouds and water vapor are major greenhouse gases. They trap energy entering and infrared energy leaving earth, helping heat the earth and keep it at a temperature suitable for life.


Where does the energy come from to keep the water cycle going?

the energy used in the water cycle is heat from the sun. it is the only source of energy needed in the water cycle.this is because it evaporates the water that forms clouds until the cloud cannot hold it any longer and bursts into rain.

What is the temperature of ice that is just touching the sea water?

The temperature of ice, for it to remain stable as ice is under 0c, but if you put energy into the ice, that will melt it, preventing that energy being used to raise its temperature. The ice is said to 'change state' from a solid to a liquid, and when energy is used to do this (lets say its warm sea water and energy goes from warmer to colder objects), the temperature change of the material as a result of more energy being put into it would decease. The same applies when water reaches boiling point: as you heat cold water, it gets hotter and hotter, until eventually the energy you are using to heat the water suddenly starts going into changing the state of the water from liquid to steam. This will mean that some of the energy is no longer available to keep heating up the water.


Turn Down The Heat On Your Water Heater?

Many homeowners do not realize that they can adjust the heat settings on their home's water heater. Although you can set your water heater to heat water until it is very hot, it is a good idea to keep your water heater's settings turned down to a lower temperature. Heating your water to a very hot temperature wastes energy. Additionally, if the water in your shower or sink is too hot, it could scald members of your household. Keep your water heater adjusted so that it does not cause burns or waste energy.


When you are walking on a cold day what is some of the energy in your body being used for?

It is used to keep your body temperature at a constant temperature

What is respiration energy needed for?

It is the way that energy is released from glucose, for our cells to use to keep us functioning.


What is a Bosch tankless water heater?

Traditional water heaters heat large amounts of water and hold it in a tank until it is needed. It periodically reheats the water to keep it at a set temperature. All this heating costs money. A Bosch tankless water heater has a very small tank mounted on the wall that rapidly heats the water only when it is needed.
