GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Since metal is a good conductor of energy, the spoon gets hot because heat is transferred through the metal pot to its handle, and then to the metal spoon.

Detailed explanation-2: -A metal spoon transmits heat easily. A wooden spoon does not transfer heat easily. The metal is a conductor and the wood is an insulator. A conductor is something that lets heat go through it and an insulator is something that does not let heat go through it easily.

Detailed explanation-3: -So we can say in a short way, steel spoons will not be charged by the rubbing with the polythene or woolen clothes. Generally, steel is a good conductor of electricity because it is metal.

Detailed explanation-4: -The material the spoon is made out of is a heat conductor, which means that the molecules in the spoon tend to effectively transfer their energy to their neighbors, speeding them up–all the way up the handle of the spoon. An oven mitt is made out of a heat insulator.

Detailed explanation-5: -Steel is a good conductor. As soon as the steel spoon gets charged by rubbing with another object, the electric charge produced on its surface flow through our hand and body into the earth and the spoon remains uncharged. Was this answer helpful?
