https://mocomi.com/ presents: How does a pressure cooker work? The laws of Physics apply to our everyday activities, even cooking food. Watch this animated video explaining how a pressure cooker works to cook our food faster. Steam and Pressure are 2 very important things happening inside the chamber of a pressure cooker. A pressure cooker is made up of a pot, a lid which fits precisely on the pot with a locking mechanism; a rubber ring that goes between the lid and the pot so that no air can escape; a valve on top of the lid with a release whistle There are 2 extremely important parts in all pressure cookers. The rubber ring that goes between the pot and the lid ensures that no air escapes from inside the container; if it did then the pressure would not be able to build up. The valve on the top is a safety measure that makes sure the pressure does not build up to dangerous levels inside the pot. This could lead to a potentially dangerous explosion. It is designed to allow some of the steam to escape after the pressure inside reaches a certain point. And with that startling whistle we know how much the food has been cooked. #PressureCooker #HowItsWorks #Science To read the full article on how a pressure cooker works, read: https://mocomi.com/how-does-a-pressure-cooker-work/ For more fun learning physics articles and videos go to: https://mocomi.com/learn/science/physics/ Watch more science videos in one go here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiBcur1aqcg Subscribe here for new and interesting content every week ► ► null Press Bell Icon 🔔; For Latest Updates.
