latent heat explained

What causes ice to melt without raising its temperature?
This can be explained by the concept of latent heat?
This video covers the physics of latent heat and explores a couple of examples to aid understanding.

I so wish simplicity such as this was more readily found and taught. Thanks a lot

[@JohnnyJr396]

Thanks. One thing that I haven’t been able to grasp and I think I have it figured out from watching this.. Swamp coolers in low humid areas bring outside air across across a wet media by a fan and the air blown through a house. The latent heat of evaporation doesn’t increase the vapor temp, and the energy causing the latent heat of vaporization is decreasing. The energy that is decreasing is the dry bulb temp. Thank you and correct me if I’m wrong.

one of the nicest video on latent heat. I don't know why this isn't upvoted or commented. thank you from india. please make more videos on refraction, spectrum, magnetism, and machines

When your cursor came on screen I thought it was a fruit fly LOL

[@arjunbhatt3953]

First time I heard about this topic however I think I understood everything. Amazingly explained ; well done buddy

[@drrodrigoromanpena3742]

Incredible good explanation. Well done Paul!

[@alexmoliere570]

So when people talk about latent heat in terms of cooling do they mean this? When a liquid is turned into a gas, it takes energy from its surroundings to break down the physical structure instead of increasing its temperature. You can use this in refrigeration by lowing the boiling point(this can be done by putting water in a vacuum). Your vapor can change phases at lower temperatures, and thus absorb energy.

Nice & Clear explanation !!😊😊 thank U so much !! From India 😊

[@PhysicsHigh]

You’re welcome

[@rohityadavade5528]

Amazing 👌👌👌

[@adly__]

3:02 that voice break though

[@anonymouscreator415]

😂 ty- I’m watching for school work this made it better

[@berkotropia]

What a brilliant video!!! Very deep knowledge and summary!

[@PhysicsHigh]

Thanks!

[@decayingsofacinema-relaxin6072]

very clear explanation~ Thanks~

[@gauravbatra9987]

Well-explained!

[@stephencressionnie4340]

That last part. The burning. Blew my mind man. Physics. Yea.

[@libbyberry8653]

Who is watching this in quarantine for GCSEs and it’s helpful but is so bored 🤭

[@esan5345]

yeh

[@anonymouscreator415]

It’s helpful but still bit bored physics isn’t my strong point 😅

[@user-xh9up7zz2k]

Thank you Sir!

[@shaheemgen3394]

Thanks a lot sir

[@vanditamoolchandani5997]

everything explained in a proper way

[@PhysicsHigh]

Thanks

[@jassemtoumi2876]

God bless u ! Sir

[@badassmcgilicutty6415]

thanks so much, I now understand why it can't change temperature as well as state.

[@simaraman05]

Thanks.

[@ivaniankovitch2604]

excellent video

[@PhysicsHigh]

Thanks

[@amukelanisiwela1358]

Thank you sooo much

[@PhysicsHigh]

You’re welcome

Nice video. I still am unsure of the following though: I get that when melting ice, at -5 degrees the energy put into the system as the temperature of water is kept constant, is used to break the bonds of the ice. But is the temperature of ice kept constant at 0 degrees as well, or is it increasing from -5 to 0?

[@shailendratiwary7831]

it is being constant

[@bernardbecker9864]

The boiling point of liquid Nitrogen is -195.8 °C, NOT -198 °C (at Sea Level)

Was that last image a toe that looked like a finger or a finger that looked like a toe.

[@iamkezzi]

a toenger

Dude! You could be a hero! Could you tweak this video just a bit to demonstrate the consequences of a "Blue Ocean Event"? (That is when most if not all Arctic sea ice has completely melted.) Take your glass of ice T and stick a digital thermometer in it. Have a second digital thermometer depicting air temperature. Finally have a digital clock on camera. Then graph the results over time. I would do this video but I don't have the digital thermometers. This video would be most helpful to show that when all the sea ice is gone, the ocean temperature will shoot up rather dramatically endangering all the frozen greenhouse gases up there in the ocean floor (methane hydrates.)Thanks in advance.

[@PhysicsHigh]

Like your idea. Thanks

[@PhysicsHigh]

You will be happy to know I made the video - and thanks for your idea Its yet to be published as I type - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rITJdnV6ZsSZgsU acknowledgement in the description

14:15 broooo...

[@anonymouscreator415]

Who’s here from school? 😂

[@erikkarberg9730]

Its legit

[@kauthra-fg4gh]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

Your statements regarding potential energy are contrary to how it's normally formulated. When items attract one another, their potential energy is zero when they are infinitely far away and the potential energy decreases (becomes negative) the closer they are. So a gas has a less negative (thus higher) potential energy compared with a liquid or a solid.

not a really informative video
