1) Botijos and canteens with cloth covers cool water through evaporation. As water molecules gain energy and evaporate from the surface, they carry away heat in the form of latent heat of vaporization.
2) Pressure cookers cook food faster by raising the boiling point of water. At higher pressures like 2 atm, water boils at 120C rather than 100C, allowing chemical reactions in foods to occur more quickly.
3) The sound of a boiling kettle comes from the process of nucleate boiling, where vapor bubbles form on imperfections in the kettle surface and rapidly grow and collapse, creating an audible noise.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. Everyday science
• It’s easy to appreciate the power of science in high tech
equipment
•However, in the most daily things there is also plenty of
science
• Let’s see some examples in the following…
3.
4.
5. Why “botijos” cool water?
It’s not only that botijos keep water fresh,
they actually lower its temperature
And why canteens wear “coats”?
Surely we have seen aluminum
canteens with a cloth cover
(particularly felt)
6. Water cools when evaporates
These fresh water flasks work because of the physical fact:
“when water evaporates it removes heat form its
surroundings”
But, what is precisely “evaporation”, is the same as boiling?
7. Obviously evaporation is not boiling
• Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs
from the surface of a liquid into a gaseous phase that is not
saturated with the evaporating substance.
• Boiling is the vaporization of a liquid which occurs when a
liquid is heated to its boiling point, the temperature at which
the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure
exerted on the liquid by the surrounding environmental
pressure.
Wikipedia definitions
8. Evaporation vs. Boiling
• Boiling takes place in the bulk of the liquid and
depends on the temperature
• Evaporation is happens in the surface and is (almost)
non dependent on the temperature
Obviously shocks do not boil
when drying!!
9. Why water cools when evaporates?
In the random
movement of the
molecules, when
one gets energy
enough, it leaves
the liquid,
and takes this
energy with it !!
This energy, averaged macroscopically can be
measured and is called: latent heat of vaporization
10. How much vaporization cools?
• Just go to the tables (or the internet) and look up
“latent heat of vaporization”
• at 0ºC 2.50 · 106 J/kg 595 cal/g
• at 20ºC 2.45 · 106 J/kg 585 cal/g
• at 100ºC 2.26 · 106 J/kg 540 cal/g
The details on the process are not simple. One can discover the variables
that are relevant thinking what to do to better dry your laundry:
increase contact surface (hanging it), dry air, renewed air (some breeze),
and warm air.
But maybe we are going too far
11. Going back to our questions
• Why “botijos” cool water? Because of evaporation
• Why canteens wear felt coats?
To be wet and evaporate
12. BTW, this effect can be precisely calculated
But we are not interested in these details.
Just keep in mind that science is also
quantitative

15. Why do pressure cookers cook
quicker?
They do indeed, between 3 and 5 times depending on the food
Because they are under pressure, but…
16. What is cooking?
“Cooking” is the transformation
of food though a set of
chemical reactions that take
place at high temperature

18. Evaporation vs. Boiling
• Evaporation is a type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs
from the surface of a liquid into a gaseous phase that is not
saturated with the evaporating substance.
• Boiling is the vaporization of a liquid which occurs when a
liquid is heated to its boiling point, the temperature at which
the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure
exerted on the liquid by the surrounding environmental
pressure.
Wikipedia definitions
19. How long does it take to cook?
• Depends on the temperature.
• The higher T, the quicker the
reactions take place
• Boiling temperature depends
on the surrounding pressure
• That’s why boiling an egg at
the top of a mountain can take
really long
20. Higher pressure, higher temperature,
less time
Pressure cookers are pressurized flasks
Typically 2 atm (absolute),
that correspond to 120ºC
