What else can I help you with?
When we touch a piece of metal and a piece of wood that are placed in the same room the piece of metal feel much older than the piece of wood this happens because of the difference in?
The metal feels colder than the wood because it conducts heat away from our skin faster due to its high thermal conductivity. Wood is a poor conductor of heat, so it feels warmer as it does not draw heat away from our skin as quickly.
Is a piece of wood an insulator or a conductor?
A piece of wood is an insulator because it does not allow electricity to flow through it easily. Wood has high resistance to electrical current, unlike conductors such as metal.
Why does a piece of metal at room temperature feel cooler than a piece of wood room temperature?
If the room temperature is cooler then you are. it is because metal is a good conductor of heat. When you put your hand on the metal it immediately starts to draw heat away from your hand this gives you the impression that it is cooling you, which it is. If you do the same with a piece of wood it is not able to draw the heat away from you be cause it is a reasonable insulator.
What do you call a thick piece of wood?
A thick piece of wood is commonly referred to as a plank.
What is the coefficient of friction for metal on wood?
the answer will be meaningless until you specify what kind of wood and how finished.
What is a abrofile?
a piece of metal that cuts wood
What would make a better reflector a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
A piece of metal would make a better reflector than a piece of wood because metal has higher reflectivity due to its smooth surface and lower absorption of light. Wood is more likely to absorb light rather than reflect it efficiently.
Which is heavier a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
It will depend on the size of the two pieces. A log is going to be heavier than a penny. Metal is denser than wood.
Better reflector a piece of metal or a piece of wood?
piece of metal because most pieces have smooth surfaces so the light bounces off perfectly. but wood has a rough surface and wood also absorbs most of the light so it wouldn't reflect off.
Speck is to dust as sliver is to?
Wood. Just as speck is a small particle of dust, a sliver is a small piece of wood.

What is the definition of girder?
girder isa a large strong piece of metal or wood.
Is a piece of wood an insulator or a conductor?
A piece of wood is an insulator because it does not allow electricity to flow through it easily. Wood has high resistance to electrical current, unlike conductors such as metal.
Many tongues have been injured by licking a piece of metal on a very cold day Why would no harm result if a piece of wood were licked on the same day?
Because wood is a poor conductor there for it doesn't allow the saliva on your tongue to freeze like the metal would.
Is the metal object really colder than the piece of wood at the same room temperature?
Yes, absolutely.
What is tappoon?
An object (usually sheet metal or a piece of wood) used to stop the water flow to a field.
What is A narrow piece of wood or metal used to join pieces called?
A narrow piece of wood or metal used to join pieces is called a dowel. Dowels are commonly used in furniture making and carpentry to strengthen joints and provide additional support.
