Heat is transferred to your hand from a hot object you are touching through thermal conduction.
Normally, heat transfer processes are categorized as thermal conduction, radiative transfer or convection.
Heat transfer through thermal conduction is the direct transfer of kinetic energy from one molecule to the nearby molecules. Because temperature is directly proportional to kinetic energy, interactions between neighboring particles exchange energy and that exchange energy gradually works it way from the higher temperature regions to the lower temperature regions. The process of the temperature becoming the same is called thermal equilibration.
Convective heat transfer occurs in fluids. If a gas, liquid, or other fluid, changes in fluid density change the buoyancy and will cause fluid to flow (a process called convection) and the heat contained in the warmer fluid is transferred to a new location by the physical movement of the fluid.
Radiative transfer occurs when a hot object radiates electromagnetic energy. While the sun is an obvious source of electromagnetic energy, it is also generated in smaller amounts by any object. The hotter objects radiate more electromagnetic energy and the cooler objects absorb it. This radiative transfer is important but not as noticeable usually as the other two.

What is it called When you touch a hot pot or pan and energy moves from the pot to your hand?
heat transfer.
When you touch a hot pot or pan energy moves from the pot to your hand what is it called?
The transfer of energy from the hot pot or pan to your hand is called heat transfer or thermal conduction. This occurs due to the temperature difference between the objects, causing the heat to flow from the hotter object (the pot) to the cooler one (your hand).
When you touch a hot pot or pan energy moves from the pot to your hand in?
If your hand directly touches the hot pot or pan, the heat is transferred from the pot or pan to your hand by conduction.
How does heat transfer from one object to another through conduction?
Yes, conduction is when two objects are touching. For instance if you touch the stove thermal energy from the stove goes into your hand burning you.
What type of heat transfer is ice on a hand?
Conduction.
When you touch a hot platethe transfer of heat from the plate to your hand is called?
Conduction
What is it called when you touch a pot and the energy moves from the pot to your hand?
Heat Transfer.
What is it called When you touch a hot pot or pan and energy moves from the pot to your hand?
heat transfer.
When you touch A hot pan or pot energy moves from the pot to your hand this is called?
heat transfer
Must a runners hand touch the plate when he slides into home?
No. Any part of the runners body may touch the plate.
When you touch a hot pot or pan energy moves from the pot to your hand what is it called?
The transfer of energy from the hot pot or pan to your hand is called heat transfer or thermal conduction. This occurs due to the temperature difference between the objects, causing the heat to flow from the hotter object (the pot) to the cooler one (your hand).
When you dip your hand in cold water you feel it cold. Can you name the mode of heat transfer and its direction?
This type of heat transfer is called conduction. The transfer is from the warm hand to cool water.
Do people in Thailand eat with chopsticks?
No, they use a spoon with their dominant hand and a fork in the other to help transfer food to their plate.
When you touch a cold surface does cold travel from the surface to your hand or does energy travel from your hand to the cold surface?
Energy travels from your hand to the surface, because even the slightest touch transfers energy. Cold doesn't transfer from the surface to your hand, your nerves just tell your brain that the surface is cold.
Feeling with the hand is called?
Touch, stroke, feel, sense (heat)
Why a metal feels colder to touch than wood kept in a cold place?
Metal is a thermal conductor and wood is a thermal insulator.when you touch the metal the energy transfer rapidlyto the metal,making it colder.when you touch the wood the energy transfer very slowly from your hand to the wood kept in a cold place.
How is heat transferred between a human hand and a glass of ice tea?
via conduction. there are 3 types of heat transfer: conduction = transfer through direct touch convection = transfer through a liquid or gas radiation = transfer through electromagnetic waves
