A metal spoon and a wooden spoon are left overnight in a room.  Why do we feel colder when we touch the metal spoon than when we touch the wooden one? a. Since metals usually have a lower heat capacity than non-metals, the metal spoon loose more heat to the room and consequently has a lower temperature b. Metals release heat faster than non-metals because of their higher thermal conductivity c. This is merely psychological since we are conditioned to think of metals as “cold” d. Metals absorb heat faster than non-metals because of their higher thermal conductivity

Mechanisms of heat transfer

Heat transfer is an essential discipline in thermal engineering that deals with the transfer, conversion, usability, and creation of heat or thermal energy. Transfer of heat occurs through various mechanisms like conduction, convection, radiation, and change of phases. All these mechanisms have distinct characteristics, but these mechanisms can simultaneously occur in an identical system.
