It is known as Conduction.
Cold doesn't travel, heat does. The heat travels from your hands to the snow.
heat dosent travel from cold objects to hot objects ,it only travels fron hot to cold objects
the particles at the heated end in say a metal rod gain kinetic energy and therefore start to vibrate more. These heated particles then hit other less energetic (hot) particles and then the heat is passed on that way until the whole object is heated up.
If you heat one end of a metal bar then the heat passes along the bar by a process known as conduction.

If you had a spoon and heated one end of it the other end would get hot more quickly than if you heated one end of some water in the same shape as a spoon (not easy!!) and measured the heat at the other end of that. This is because the conductivity of silver is greater than that of water. However, if you had a column of water and heated the bottom, the top would get warm fairly quickly because of, not only conduction, but also convection, where the hot water rises and the cold water comes down. Silver does not move like this so the heat transfer by convection would be zero.

Because it stands as a heat insulator during cold days.

Heat will be transferred through the metal and begin melting the ice at the other end. Metal is a very good conductor of heat and heat like most other things prefers to equalize itself if possible.
well heat is fast moving particles they collide with slow particles which is cold and the slow particles move fast too. In the end the slow particles move faster just as heat so they are not cold anymore.
The drawing pin which is the closest to the heat/bunsen burner will fall off first because of the heat partials travel through the metal rod and through each piece of wax causing the wax to melt.
The hair works as insulation for heat against the cold winds. When it is cold the erector muscles connected to the hair contracts.

When a metal bar is heated....the particles in the area of the metal bar that is hot start vibrating.. knocking into each other and passing the heat energy on to cooler particles. The cooler end that isn't heated still has a rise in temperature just not as much as the heated area because the heat has almost been diluted.
