🦸 Myth busters for this topic

❌ "Cold things like ice give out cold."

✅ Cold is the absence of heat. Heat always flows from the warmer object to the cooler one.

When you hold ice, heat flows out of your warm hand into the ice — your hand is not receiving cold, it is losing heat.

Try it yourself: Hold an ice cube in your hand. Your hand feels cold because heat is leaving your hand, not because cold is entering it.
