Which kind of heat transfer takes place if you put a spoon in a cup of soup and the spoon gets hot to the touch?
Conduction if the spoon is a conductor
You are making soup and you put a metal spoon in the pot to stir the soup. You leave and when you come back to stir the soup the spoon is super hot. What term describes why the spoon is so hot?
Conduction. The metal of the spoon conducts heat - therefore it heats up.
Explain how you could feel heat from a radiator by more than one method of transfer?
you can feel it from convection. (heater on ground) you can feel it from conduction. (spoon in soup) you can feel it from radiation. (light)
Why does a wooden spoon not get hot if you put it in hot soup?
Because wood is a poor conductor of heat.
Why does a metal spoon handle gets hot in soup but a plastic spoon handle does not?
Because metals conduct heat really well. Plastics conduct only a little heat with difficulty.
Will a spoon in a bowl of soup help it cool down faster or keep it hot?
A cold spoon will extract heat from the soup, a spoon that is warmer than the soup will transfer heat to it.

What is the reason that a spoon gets hot when it is in a bowl of hot soup?

What do condoctorof heat mean?
Being a conductor of heat means being able to let heat pass through it. For example, if you place a metal serving spoon inside a bowl of hot soup you will later find that the spoon had become hot. Heat traveled from the soup to the spoon; therefore the spoon is a conductor of heat.
A spoon heated by a bowl of hot soup is an example of heat transfer by?
Since the spoon is cooler than the bowl of hot soup, the molecules move from a higher temperature to a lower temperature. With this happening, the molecules keep transferring until the spoon is the same temperature as the bowl with soup or most likely a little over room temperate, which would be its heating point.

That is through 'conduction'
Why does a metal spoon get hot in a pot of boiling water?
'nothing, it's like putting a spoon in a hot soup' Wrong ^ As the metal spoon is a better conductor of heat than the air the hot water (or soup) and the spoon as a larger surface area with the air (or active sight) it transfers heat to the surrounding faster, thus cooling the hot liquid faster.
