How can heat burn through metal?

After the heat source exceeds the melting point of the metal, by nature the metal will melt.


Metals are conductors of heat does this mean metal wont get hot?

Since metals are conductors of heat, that means heat can be transferred to the metal, thus the metal does get hot.


How does metal absorb heat?

Metal absorbs heat through a process called conduction, where heat energy is transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one through direct contact. When metal is exposed to heat, its atoms vibrate more rapidly, causing the metal to absorb and store the heat energy. This is why metal objects feel warm to the touch after being exposed to heat.


Why does metal heat up fast?

Metals are good conductors of heat because metal atoms are closely packed together and free electrons can transfer energy quickly. When heat is applied to a metal, the energy is rapidly transferred through the metal lattice, causing it to heat up quickly.


Does leaving a metal spoon in a hot drink make it cool faster?

the spoon is metal and metal conducts heat , if you put a metal spoon in a drink the drink will retain the heat but if you take it out it's like your taking a whole lot of heat, in other words a metal spoon is like a magnet of heat it you remove the spoon it will remove heat but if you keep it in the heat will stay.shoraye khatter.

Why does metal get hot but not wood?

Metal is a good conductor of heat, which means it can easily transfer heat from one part to another. Wood, on the other hand, is a poor conductor of heat, so it doesn't transfer heat as effectively. This is why metal objects get hot quickly when exposed to heat, while wood takes longer to heat up.
