Question

By what process is the water in a kettle getting heated up

Answer 1

hey mate!

Kettles are among the simplest of household appliances. Lift the lid and peer inside and you'll see, at the very bottom of the water container, a coil of thick metal called the heating element. When you plug the kettle into an electrical outlet, a large electric current flows into the heating element. The element's resistance (the tendency any material has to stop electricity flowing through it) turns the electrical energy into heat. In other words, the element gets hot. Since it's in direct contact with cold water, the heat passes to the water by conduction and rapidly warms it up too.


hope it helps!

Answer 2

Electrical energy travels through the coil, turning into heat and warming the cold water inside it. The process looks a little something like this: When thekettle is turned on, a large electric current flows through the coil, or the 'heating element'. ... The heat brings the water inside it to boiling point.
