Is it better to run in the heat or the cold?

It's better in cold because you can run faster. In heat you sweat more than in cold.


Does cold absorb heat?

Sort of. In terms of physics, technically there is no such thing as cold. There is only heat, which is than measured on a scale to show how much heat is present. Heat will always transfer to something that has less heat than its present location. So technically no, cold does not absorb heat because cold is a perspective and not something that actually exists.. However, things that have less heat do absorb heat from things with more heat than itself. Cold is an abstract non physics word used to describe things with small amounts of heat, while in reality there is technically at least some measurable amount of heat if compared to true absolute 0 heat.


How is heat being transfered when you place your finger in the cold beaker why?

If the beaker has a cold water, or something else cold, in it than the heat that is in our finger will run out of you finger into the cold water. This leaves your finger 'empty' of heat, giving you the sensation of being cold. You need to remember that only heat moves. When you are cold you wear a jumper that keeps the heat in your body, not keep the cool out.


When is one object hotter than another?

When one object is hotter than another, heat will be transferred from the hot object to the cold object. The hot object will cool down, and the cold object will heat up, until they are the same temperature.


What are the differences between heat and temperature?

Temperature is an indicator of heat or cold. Cold is the absence of heat.
