A cup handle is made of materials that have low thermal conductivity, meaning they do not transfer heat easily. This prevents the handle from getting as hot as the rest of the cup when exposed to hot liquids. Additionally, the shape of the handle allows for air to circulate around it, helping to dissipate the heat.

Which side is the handle of a cup?

If a cup has decoration that does not go all around, it is usually oriented so that it will be facing a right-handed person when they are holding the cup, with the handle on the right as seen from the position of the user. Obviously, however, a cup can be used by either hand, and the question of what side the handle occupies is moot, unless this is a trick question and you wanted the answer "outside."

How conduction is used in a hot cup?

In a hot cup, conduction is the transfer of heat from the hot liquid to the cup itself. The heat is conducted through the material of the cup, warming up the surface that we touch. This is why the cup feels warm to the touch when filled with a hot liquid.
