What is transferred when you dip your finger into cold water?
When you dip your finger into cold water, heat is transferred from your finger to the water. This transfer of heat causes your finger to feel cold.
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.
In which direction did transfer of heat occur in your finger dipped in cold water?
Heat transfer occurred from your finger to the cold water, as heat moves from a higher temperature region (your finger) to a lower temperature region (the water) in an attempt to reach thermal equilibrium.
If you heat the water at 7 degree Celsius when you insert your finger into the water will the water be hot or cold?
cold
What actually transferred when you dipped your finger in to the cold water?
When you dip your finger into cold water, thermal energy is transferred from your warmer skin to the cooler water. This transfer of heat occurs because heat moves from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature in an attempt to reach thermal equilibrium. As your finger loses heat, you perceive the sensation of cold. The water molecules, being at a lower temperature, absorb the heat, which causes the temperature of your finger to drop.
Is ice or heat better for cold sores?
Ice use is better for cold sores.
On a cold winter day why would iron feel much colder to touch than wood?
The thermal conductivity, and thermal capacity of iron is a lot higher than for wood. So when you touch wood, a little heat from your finger warms the wood just at that place and isn't conducted away. But for iron, it's as though your finger is trying to heat the whole piece, the heat conducts away rapidly and your finger then keeps trying to supply more until it is as cold as the iron. So the iron feels colder - just because it doesn't warm under your finger like the wood.

After shoulder dislocation what is better heat or cold?
Immediately after - cold; When injury subsides - heat for healing.
What actually transferred when you dipped your finger into the cold water?
When you dipped your finger into the cold water, heat transferred from your warmer finger to the cooler water. This process is known as conduction, where thermal energy moves from a hotter object to a cooler one until thermal equilibrium is reached. As a result, your finger feels cold due to the loss of heat, while the water slightly warms up from the energy it absorbs.
