Boiling water is a day-to-day activity we perform in our lives in order to cook any food or prepare a hot beverage like coffee or tea. During this heating process, the molecules in water get activated, and the intensity of the movement of the molecules mainly depends on the temperature. This movement of molecules, meanwhile, leads to the generation of noise by the molecule’s movement within the container in which water has been boiled. So, by considering this noise and using it as the main tool of our experiment, we perform tasks such as studying the variation in noise produced at different temperature gradients. This analysis of water boiling at different temperatures with respect to the noise generated would be useful in various fields where there is consideration of energy saving or building an industrial environment with power-efficient technology.
