For simplicity, assume two solid blocks of the same material. Molecules in the hotter substance move faster on average; they will bounce against the molecules in the colder substance, transferring part of their energy. Energy is also transferred through bounces from the cold substance to the hot substance - but on average, more energy will be transferred from the hot to the cold substance, simply because on average, the molecules move faster.

Is it true that heat can pass from cold bodies to hot bodies?
No, heat naturally flows from hot bodies to cold bodies in a process called heat transfer. This is described by the second law of thermodynamics, which states that heat flows spontaneously from higher temperature regions to lower temperature regions.
Why is it colder the higher you go in altitude?
As you go higher in altitude, the air becomes thinner and less dense. Thinner air is not able to hold heat as well as denser air, so the temperature decreases with increasing altitude. This is why it is colder the higher you go in altitude.
Which direction does heat transfer occur: does heat go to cold or does cold go to heat?
Heat transfer occurs from hot to cold. Heat always moves from a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
Does hot air go to cold or vice versa in the process of heat transfer?
In the process of heat transfer, hot air moves to cold air.
In which way does heat flow?
When a hotter/colder object touches the opposite heat of it, then the colder ones thermal energy will go up and the hotter ones thermal energy will go down until then have then same temperature.the cold air is pushed down and the hot air forced up.Answer'Heat' is defined as energy in transit from a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
Why does heat go from a hot place to a cooler place?
It loses heat to the surrounding air.
How hot does water melt?
The heat energy from the water has to go to a colder place such as the plastic. When the heat energy meets the bunched-up plastic atoms, the plastic atoms get hypped up and run around, turning from a bunched-up solid to a loose liquid.
Can a penguin die of heat?
Penguins die in the heat because when they are born they are already used to the cold if they go to a place that is hot they will die.
Why an object losses heat?
An object loses heat because all warmth flows into colder objects. For example, if you are holding a cup of hot cocoa on a cold winter day the heat of the cocoa will go into your cold hands. This is an example of thermal energy.
What is it called when heat can go from cooler to warmer temperatures?
"heat" can not go from colder to warmer temperatures. Heat is not an object, it's energy. Temperature is simply a measurement of how much heat an object possess.
How does my heat go from hot to cold?
There is no adequent heat- thermal.
Is it cold in the center below the earth's surface?
its hot and the deeper you go the hotter it gets
Is it true that heat can pass from cold bodies to hot bodies?
No, heat naturally flows from hot bodies to cold bodies in a process called heat transfer. This is described by the second law of thermodynamics, which states that heat flows spontaneously from higher temperature regions to lower temperature regions.
Can marigolds go in compost?
In the hot summer heat!
Why is Florida the best place to live?
actually with the weather becoming so hot, some people go there often cause the heat blows off in summer, I think that it is a cool place
What are the effects of a ballon that is left in a sunny place?
the air inside will heat up, causing it to expand. If it gets too hot it may go "pop"
Where does the heat go from a cup of hot cocoa sitting on the table?
Hot air rises.
