how it works when you boil it

when you switch the kettle on electricity travels up the cable into an element, the continuous flow of electricity in the element causes the electrons and neutrons to move at an increasing rate which then creates heat energy the more electricity fed to the element the faster they move. hence the temperature rises and boils the water. once the water/element is at a set temperature there is a cut off switch (the switch you turned on is connected to it) and the electricity supply is cut off to the kettle therefore it starts to cool down.

Hope that is of some use to you

How A Kettle Works

Put water in, plug it in, turn it on (at the kettle AND at the wall!), wait for it to boil. The kettle should automatically switch itself off, so you know when it's finished. Alternatively, get someone who knows to do it for you!!!

the electric element inside warms up and therefore heats the water, eventually making it boil.
if not an electric kettle, the heat from you cooker heats the bottom of the kettle thus heating the water inside

the meatal thingy heats up using kinetic energy and then when it gets to a certain temp it cools rapidly



i think. :)
