Why heat transfer to metal objects?

Heat transfers to, and from, any object, not just metal object. Metals in general are very good conductors of heat; as a result, you might feel the temperature more easily when you touch a metal object. If you get burned more easily by a metal object than by a wooden object, for example, both at the same temperature, this is a direct result of heat conduction.


When you rub a magnet with metal what happens to the metal object?
