It's basically the same as the glow wires in a toaster, or the filament in an incandescent light bulb. When a current is passed through the element, the resistance makes the element heat up.
Another AnswerWhen an electric current passes through the heating element, it does work on the heating element, water, and the kettle itself. This causes the internal energy of the element, water, and kettle to rise, and this is accompanied by an increase in temperature. When the temperature exceeds that of the surroundings, some energy is lost to the surroundings through heat transfer. The equation that describes this is:
W - Q = [m c (T2 - T1)]water +[m c (T2 - T1)]kettle
Where:
W = work done (joules)
Q = heat transfer (joules)
m = mass (kilograms)
c = specific heat capacity (joules per kilogram kelvin)
T2 = final temperature (kelvin)
T1 = initial temperature (kelvin)

Does cordless kettle mean that the heating element is not in cotact with water?
no. it means that the kettle can be unplugged from the electricity source. the heating source is in touch with water, as it is located inside the kettle :)
Does the wire in the electrical cord of an electric kettle have a higher or lower resistance than the heating element inside the kettle?
The wire in the cord has much lower resistance than the heating element. The heating element is a resistive or resistance heating element. Resistance in the quality of a substance or material that causes it to limit current flow, and it get heated up in the process. The heating element has all but the smallest fraction of the resistance in the circuit, so the heat, that thermal energy that get the water hot, is generated by the resistance of the heating element.

What happen to the heating element if lower power supplied to an electric kettle via transformer?
it won't get as hot
What will happen if the heating element is near the top of an electric kettle?
The kettle will be less efficient because it won't be benefitting from the effects of convection currents. It will use considerably more energy.
