a planet like the sun
hahha the suns a star and the sun gives off heat but still funny. i assume most liquids and soft solids like butter and certain plastics. it all depends on the atomic structure of the element/object. most objects and substances absorb heat but i really think its about how much heat it takes to affect the object e.g causing it to change state like from solid to liquid then to gas. you heat water and it will be warm and you can boil it and it will give off steam. you want an object that absorb heat easily but not change state. perhaps a wet sponge or a dry one. try that

Flowers do not absorb heat directly as they do not have the metabolic processes to generate heat. However, they can be affected by heat from their surroundings, which can impact their growth and development.
Yes, colors can absorb heat. Dark colors tend to absorb more heat because they absorb a wider range of wavelengths, including those associated with heat energy. Lighter colors, on the other hand, tend to reflect more heat because they reflect a larger portion of the spectrum.
Dark surfaces are the best absorbers of heat because they absorb a wider range of wavelengths of light, converting them into heat energy. Light surfaces, on the other hand, reflect more light and thus absorb less heat.
If there was more heat to absorb than was already in the material.
Materials with high thermal conductivity, such as metals like copper or aluminum, are good for absorbing heat from air. They can quickly transfer the heat to a heat sink or storage medium for redistribution or use. Additionally, materials with high specific heat capacity, like water or oils, can also effectively absorb heat from air over a longer period of time.
white objects reflect heat while black objects absorb it
They absorb light which is converted into heat energy
Household objects like metal pots, cast iron skillets, and ceramic dishes typically absorb and retain heat well. Additionally, objects made of glass can also absorb heat effectively.
Dark-colored objects absorb heat faster than light-colored objects because they absorb more light energy. Additionally, materials with high thermal conductivity absorb heat faster as they can efficiently transfer heat throughout their structure.
Yes, bright red objects can absorb heat because they absorb light across a broad spectrum, including infrared radiation, which carries heat. The absorption of light energy by bright red objects causes them to heat up.
Black objects absorb the most heat
Black is the best absorber and emitter of heat. Black objects absorb most of the incoming radiation, converting it into heat, and they also emit thermal radiation efficiently.
The emitting and absorbtion of heat is related to ' thermal radiation', whereas the 'conduction' of heat is a separate topic in physics. Firstly, thermal radiation is not equivalent across all substances. Darker coloured 'objects' such as those with a 'matt black' colour are the best emitters and absorbers of 'heat'. Lighter silvered 'objects' are the poorest emitters, the poorest absorbers, and the best reflectors of heat. Similarly, not all objects equally conduct heat. Metals are the best conductors of heat; and so non-metals are the worst. All Insulators do not conduct heat. Examples of good insulators are: plastic and wood.
Black objects absorb heat because they absorb a wider range of light wavelengths, including those responsible for heat, compared to lighter-colored objects. This absorption of light energy causes the object's particles to vibrate and generate heat. Additionally, black surfaces have a higher emissivity, meaning they emit thermal radiation more efficiently, contributing to their ability to absorb heat.
White objects reflect most of the light that hits them, including sunlight, which helps keep them cooler. On the other hand, black objects absorb most of the light, converting it into heat energy, causing them to heat up more than white objects.
Black objects absorb all wavelengths of light, while white objects reflect all wavelengths of light. This means that black objects absorb more light and convert it into heat, making them hotter than white objects which reflect more light and absorb less heat.
Black objects absorb more light and heat than lighter colored objects because they absorb a wider range of light frequencies. This increase in absorbed energy allows black objects to conduct heat more effectively than lighter colored objects.
