Question

Why is the handle made of a different material than the rest of the pot?

Answer 1

Answer: the handle is made up of different material than the rest of the pot because the handle can conduct heat into your hand if its the same material.

Answer 2

Hi there!

Your answer is:

The handle is made from a different material than the rest of the pot because you want to be able to safely move & touch the handle without getting burnt. The pot is made of conductors, like metal, to help it get hot quickly and cook evenly. You need to be able to touch the handle without being in danger, so the handle is made of an insulator, like wood, which doesn't get hot easily

I hope this helps!
