need help rn please BRAINLY GIVEN IF HELPED A student left his scooter out in the bright sunlight. When he went to ride it, he noticed that the metal parts of the scooter felt much hotter than the plastic handles and rubber tires.
Why did the metal parts of the scooter feel hot?
Why did the plastic and rubber parts of the scooter feel cooler than the metal parts?
Metal conducts heat better than plastic and rubber. Generally, you see plastic and rubber on pots and pans so when you handle them, you don’t get burnt. Both rubber and plastic are good heat insulators, but not good heat conductors.
