Mining. In cryptocurrency networks, mining is a validation of transactions. For this effort, successful miners obtain new cryptocurrency as a reward. The reward decreases transaction fees by creating a complementary incentive to contribute to the processing power of the network.
It matters because the actual coffee flavor is extracted from grind better at higher temperatures. I'm not a scientist but I trust those that have done the research and they say that the optimal temperature for hot water in a coffee pot is between 195-200 degrees or just a little under boiling.
You wish to heat water to make coffee. How much heat (in joules) must be used to raise the temperature of 0.180 kg of tap water (enough for one cup of coffee) from 19C to 96C (near the ideal brewing temperature)? Assume the speciï¬c heat is that of pure water, 4.18 J /(gC).
