An electrical kettle is made out of stainless steel,weighs two pounds (when empty) with a heating element that consumes 2 kw of electricity. assuming that the water and the kettle are at the same uniform temperature at any moment of time, calculate the shortest possible time to bring 2 quarts of water from room temperature to the onset of boiling.

Explain the strain-hardening phenomenon on the basis of dislocation - dislocation strain field interactions. also, briefly describe what generally happens to the ductility of a metal that has been strain hardened (i.e. does strain hardening make a metal more ductile or
