or. The Hiss of Hot Iron.
iev
Why does a hot iron make a
hissing sound when thrust into
US" wattr? That is oneof the common
^ tilings that a majority of people,
? ld as well as yonmr. do not
68 stop to think about. .The expla,n<*
nation is quite simple: The hot
iron converts into steam tin*
lc'' ihe water particles with which
08 it comes in contact, and as the
' stream Hies upward in escaping
it pas-es o'her water particles
not yet evaporat d. The collision
i hu" caused produces very rapid
for vibrations in the air, and those
, vibra'ions make the hissing
kel. noise. ? Exchange.
