PSLE Science: why pan handles are never made of metal - Video

P4 Science, Heat. I bought my mother a $300 wok 15 years ago, and the designers of it don't even have primary school science.

The answer for your paper: metal is a good conductor of heat, so heat flows quickly from the hot wok up the handle into your hand. Plastic is a poor conductor of heat, so heat flows slowly from the wok to the handle, and the handle does not get too hot to hold.
