Tea in a metal cup would cool down relatively quickly, since the metal cup wall conducts heat very well.

How would a metal spoon help to make a cup of hot tea cool down?

Yes it would, the metal conducts the heat quickly


Which of the following would have the best thermal conductor properties a thick mug or a cup made of metal?

A cup made of metal would have better thermal conductor properties than a thick mug. Metal is a better conductor of heat than ceramic or glass, allowing the metal cup to heat up or cool down faster when in contact with hot or cold liquids.

What will happen energetically to a cup of boiling hot water that is added to a cup containing a cold piece of metal?

choices are: The cold will flow from the metal into the hot water, causing the hot water to warm up and the metal to cool down. b. The energy from the hot water will flow into the cold metal, cooling the water down and heating up the metal. c. The cold will flow from the metal into the hot water, causing the hot water to cool down and the metal to warm up. d. The metal will cool down because the specific heat of water is high.


Would a plastic cup keep the water hot longer than a metal cup?

A plastic cup holds more heat because plastic can't take out heat. Glass conducts heat away.


What type of mug will make boiling water cool down faster?

If the mug is made of glass, it will allow the water to cool faster. A thick styrofoam cup is better than a paper cup, even though the insulating properties of the materials are similar.


What happens to the heat stored in the metal when the metal is poured into the Styrofoam cup of water?

When the metal is poured into the Styrofoam cup of water, the heat stored in the metal is transferred to the water and the cup. This transfer of heat causes the temperature of the water and the cup to increase, as the metal cools down.


Tea cools more easily in clay cup ormetal cup or porcelain cup?

it will cool faster in a metal cup. - the others retain heat better.


Can a styrofoam cup keep hot water hot?

A styrofoam cup can help to retain heat, but it is not as effective as materials like ceramic or insulated metal. Hot water in a styrofoam cup will cool down faster compared to using a better insulated material.


What are the examples of superstitous beliefs with scientific basic?

Examples of such beliefs would be:1. Place a spoon on your coffee cup to cool it faster! *reason, heat is transferred to the metal spoon faster than it is transferred to the cup. 2. Warm air goes up, cool air goes down *reason, check the fridge when you open it at midnight, the air form it crawls down to your feet. Also, lit candle melts down then freeze, but the smoke goes up all the way.


What cup is easier to hold with hot water a plastic one or metal?

a styrofoam cup. i tried it on my science project


Since a hot cup of coffee loses heat more rapidly than a lukewarm cup of coffee would it is correct to say that a hot cup of coffee will cool to room temperature before a lukewarm cup of coffee will?

A hot cup of coffee will cool down at a certain rate, but as the coffee cools, the rate at which it cools slows down. This is why a "lukewarm" cup of coffee cools down so slowly. Even though the warm cup of coffee is cooling down quicker at first, the lukewarm cup essentially has a "head start" on the way to room temperature.
