When you touch something very hot you move you your hand away from the object as soon as you feel the sensation why is this so?
This is an automatic response known as a withdrawal reflex. It is your body's way of protecting itself from harm by quickly moving away from a potential threat (in this case, the hot object) to prevent injury. The sensation of heat is detected by specialized nerve endings in your skin, which send a signal to your spinal cord to trigger the reflex action.
What else can I help you with?
If touch a hot object you feel the heat due to?
When you touch a hot object, you feel the heat because heat energy is transferred from the object to your skin. This increase in temperature activates pain receptors in your skin, triggering a sensation of heat or pain. Your body then reacts by moving away from the hot object to avoid further damage.
Why does metal feel cooler to the touch than wood?
Metal conducts heat better than wood, so when you touch a metal object, it can quickly draw the heat away from your skin, making it feel cooler. Wood is a poor conductor of heat, so it doesn't transfer heat as efficiently, leading to a different sensation when touched.
What factor determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it?
The temperature difference between the object and your body's temperature determines how hot or cold something feels when you touch it. Heat transfer occurs from the object to your skin if it is hotter than your body temperature, making it feel warm. Conversely, if the object is colder than your body temperature, heat is transferred from your skin to the object, making it feel cold.
Why does a metal object feels cooler then a wood object at room temperature?
Metal is a better conductor of heat than wood, so when you touch a metal object at room temperature, it conducts heat away from your skin more effectively than a wood object. This rapid transfer of heat creates the sensation of the metal feeling cooler even though both the metal and wood objects are at the same room temperature.
What is an object that is thrown or shot away from somthing?
A projectile is an object that is thrown or shot away from something, typically propelled by force. It can be in the form of a bullet, arrow, or ball.

What happens when you touch something hot Explain using reflex arc diagram?
When you touch something hot, the heat is detected by thermal receptors in your skin. This information is sent as an electrical signal through sensory neurons to the spinal cord where it synapses with interneurons. The interneurons then send a signal through motor neurons back to the muscles causing a reflex response to quickly move your hand away from the hot object, before the brain even registers the sensation of heat.

Does the mass of an object change as the center of gravity changes?
In general, an object's mass CANNOT change, unless you take something away from it or add something to it.
Can you control or choose the mass of an object in an exeriment?
You can't change the mass of an object (unless you add something to it, or take something away). But you can choose an object of the desired mass to carry out the experiment.
What is an object that is thrown or shot away from somthing?
A projectile is an object that is thrown or shot away from something, typically propelled by force. It can be in the form of a bullet, arrow, or ball.
What do you do when you touch somehing hot on your fingers?
It is natural for the brain to respond of touch something too hot to handle by pulling the fingers away from it.
How can you change mass of an object?
You can add something to an object, or take something away. Other than that, you can't really change an object's mass. Do some reading on "conservation of mass" for more details.
What is positive thigmotropism?
Positive thigmotropism is a term used in plant biology. Thigmotropism is a growth response to touch either towards (positive) or away from a stimulus (negative). Roots of plants typically show a negative thigmotropic response when they come in contact with an object in the soil such as a rock. The roots will curve away from the object. Positive thigmotropism can be seen in vines. When a vine comes into contact with an object, the side of the vine that did not touch the object will grow slightly faster than the side with the contact. This causes the vine to curve towards the object and wrap around it, giving the plant added structural support. The plant is able to perceive the touch sensation and alter its growth pattern. There are many more examples out there ... but roots and vines are the most common. And remember: Tropisms only occur when the plant is growing.
Is away a noun?
The words are not a combined form. The word "away" is an adverb, and the word from (a preposition) would introduce a noun (the object) indicating what something was to be away from.
