Why are jar lids immersed in water for a few seconds?
Short answer: This is normally done when a lid is too tight to unscrew. Placing the lid in warm or hot water loosens the lid a little so someone can get to the contents of the jar easier. Long answer: Metal reacts to heat at a lower temperature than glass does. When a metal lid is placed in warm or hot water, the lid expands outwardly from its center. This will cause the lid to loosen its grip on the jar making it easier for a user to unscrew the lid. It's simple science and a neat trick.

Why do you use hot water to remove a tight metal cap easily?
Often, lids are made of metals which are great conductors of electromagnetic waves (including heat). When warm water is applied to a "difficult" lid, excitement of the atoms in the metal occurs (very slight) which causes a slight expansion. This expansion helps the lid to be moved from it's grip on the jar or bottle. This is also found in plastics. Although not through expansions. The heat from the warm water literally softens the plastic.
