Want this question answered?
Heat is transferred into the metal spoon from the hot liquid, and it will soon be at the same temperature as the liquid because the spoon's heat capacity is quite small compared to the water surrounding it.
There are 4 types of heat transfer, convection, conduction, radiation, and direct flame contact. When you touch the stove the heat is transferred directly from one body, the stove, to the other, the finger. This is heat transfer by conduction.
Radiaton- the sun rays conduction putting a pan on a hot stove convection- hot air rising cooling and falling
A metal spoon gets warm when used to stir hot soup.
The heat energy is transferred from the hob to the metal spoon through conduction; this is where particles that vibrate a lot due to their heat energy then 'pass on' these vibrations to the next adjacent particle which does the same and so on. Metals are a good conductor of heat so that is why the metal spoon gets hot, however, wood is not a good conductor of heat and so the wooden saucepan handle doesn't get hot.
Convention
Boiling water on an electric stove,Putting a spoon in a cup of hot teaIce in tea
Convection - Hot air circulating from a heater Conduction - A hot stove with a pan on it Radiation - A hot stove

an example of conduction is a metal spoon in a cup of hot water...
A metal spoon touching a hot pan. The pan heats the spoon. The spoon serves as a conductor of heat. This is an example of conduction.
conduction causes a frying pan to get hot on a stove....................
That is through 'conduction'
