58. When you touch the metal handle of the room -temperature stainless-steel
frying pan, it feels cool to your touch. When you grab a room-temperature sauce
pan by its plastic handle,
A) it feels cooler than the metal handle because plastic conducts heat better than the
metallic steel.
B) it feels warmer than the metal handle because the steel handle conducts heat
better than the plastic.
C) it doesn't feel cooler or warmer than the steel. Why would it? Both handles are at
