Why is your spoon hot after leaving it on the pot that was on the stove?

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.

How does water in apot on a stove get hot all over?
It starts by conductions. The heater below the pot makes the molecules/atoms in the pot vibrate more. Hence hotter. This vibration in turn makes the water molecules in the pot vibrate more. when thing vibrate more , they like more space, so the vibrating water molecules rise up the pot, to be replaced by cooler molcules, which in turn vibrate more and rise up the pot. This is called Convection./.
Is a coffee pot mechanical energy?
Um, using a cup and spoon works pretty well.
Heat would best be transferred by conduction between?
A stove and a copper pot
An example of conduction convection and radiation working together?
a boiling pot because the stove radiates heat to warm the pot. the pot is touching the stove which is conduction. last when the pot is heated and boiling the steam is a form of convection. conduction could also be ice melting on a hot surface>
What are the examples of convection?
Cup of coffee ! - that is the easiest thing because the coffee in the cup heats up and the atoms bounce of the cup and move around. There movement takes place and movement deals with convection ! More Examples Without Explanations: -lava lamp -stove item -spoon in pot of soup -................
A spoon gets hot after leaving it on the pot is it conduction or convection or radiation?
Convention
How hot does the iron get on a pot belly stove?
how hot does a pot belly stove get in side
How to make hot water?
Boil it in a pot on a stove.
Would happen to a spoon made of this material is a hot pot of soup?
The spoon gets hot - Relax, this is perfectly normal.
What are examples of conductivity?
When you hand touches the hot handle of a pot. When you touch an ice cube and it melts in your hand. When the spoon touches hot water and the spoon gets hot. When the spoon touches cold ice cream and the ice cream melts.
When a pot of water is put on a stove the water at the top gets hot primarily by .?
Convection. The hot water at the bottom of the pot rises to the top.
If you leave a metal spoon in a pot of soup while the soup is heating the spoon will quickly get hot because of what?
The spoon would probably be made of medal.
Think o0f a spoon in a hot pot of water. How do the particles affect the particles of the spoon?
by convection and the particles go slower
Describe how the heat from the stove gets to the water in the pot?
As the stove heats up the pot, heat is transferred from the pot to the water through conduction. Within the pot, heat is transferred through convection from the hot water molecules to the cold ones.
Are a crock pot and a hot plate the same thing?
No. A crock pot is what you use for slow cooking roast and such. A hot plate is essentially a portable stove burner.
Think of a metal spoon in a pot of hot water. How do the particles of the water affect the particles of the spoon?
Conduction is what transfers the heat in this process. The fast moving particles in the hot electric coil collide with the slow-moving particles in the cool pot. The transfer of the heat causes the pot's particles to move faster. Then the pot's particles collide with the water's particles, which in turn collide with the particles of the spoon. As the particles move faster, the metal spoon becomes hotter.
If you leave a metal stirring spoon in a pot of soup while the soup is heating the spoon will quickly get hot because of?
It will depending on the tempature. If you have it on a high tempature it will surely get hot quickly.
