Does cold radiate outwards? What’s the process by which a hot object becomes cold?
In: Physics
Heat radiates outward. Cold is a lack of energy in a certain environment. Heat will always go from it’s source into the environment, adding energy until all of it has been equalized. Think of it like this. If you sit near a fire, it warms you. But an air conditioner needs a fan to push the cooled air around. Or even if you sat around a big ice cube it wouldn’t cool you. It would instead pull in heat from the air around it and melt.
