Evidences that energy can be transferred from one body to another?
In cooking my breakfast, I notice that heat is transferred from the stove elements to the pot in which my porridge is cooking.
Which type of the heat transfer is moving heat from the pot handle into the person hand?
Within the pot handle (solid) heat transfer is by conduction. Within a persons hand heat is transferred namely by conduction. Heat convection does occur by motion of the body fluids but it's slower. When you grab the hot handle of a pot you can immediately feel the sensation of "hot".Heat conduction is the mechanism responsible for this fast transfer.
What method of heat transfer is used when cooking a baked potato in the microwave?
When heat is transferred by microwaves, that is called radiant heat transfer.
The heat from a campfire is transferred by what energy?
Radiant heat transfer is the primary way you feel heat from a campfire. There would also be convective and conductive heat transfer to the air.
Why are pots made of metal and handles of pots made of plastic?
Metals are good conductors of heat, so the heat from the stove is easily transferred to the food in the pot. Handles are made of plastic because plastic is a poor conductor of heat, so that the heat from the stove is not transferred to your hand when you grab the handle.

Why do some cooking pots has a wooden handle?
because it helps when your cooking something because the heat takes more time to travel up the wooden handle
Why do people feel hot when cooking?
Burners, ovens and other cooking equipment will put off heat. Also, the physical exertion of cooking will make you feel warm.
Why do many mental cooking utensils have wooden handles?
The main reason that metal cooking utensils have wooden handles is to prevent you from burning yourself. Heat is easily transferred in metal. With a wooden handle, you have a very very very low chance of burning yourself. (Unless you touch the metal of course)
Can regular cotton string be use in the place of cooking twine?
No it will break because of the heat. Cooking twine isn't as thin and can handle higher temperatures.

When to use convention heat cooking?
Conventional ovens use fans to circulate air or radiation from oven walls to allow more heat to be transferred around the food. These should be used for foods with longer cooking times at higher temperatures.
Does a egg transfer heat to water or does the water transfer coolness to the egg?
No where coldness is transferred. Only heat would be transferred. Even ice could not pass coldness to your hands as you hold it. Actually you lose heat right from your hand and so you feel cold.
How does heat transferred in conduction?
Heat is directly transferred, like a frying pan.
