Question

The base of cooking pans is made thicker and heavy because:

विकल्प

• it lowers the heat capacity of the pan

• it increases the heat capacity of the pan

• the food does not get charred and keeps hot for a long time

• it increases the heat capacity of the pan and the food does not get charred and keeps hot for a long time.

Answer 1

It increases the heat capacity of the pan and the food does not get charred and keeps hot for a long time.

Explanation:

A thick, heavy base has a greater heat capacity, so it can absorb more heat without a large rise in temperature. It helps prevent food from getting charred and keeps it warm for longer.
