What effect do you think a large temperature gradient would have on the rate of heat transfer within an object?

ANSWER:

If there is a huge difference in terms of temperature between two objects, the heat will travel at a faster rate from the hotter substance to the colder one.

EXPLANATION:

The contrast in temperature between two objects is known as the thermal gradient. Gradient means steeper in these terms. The steeper the "thermal gradient", the heat is transferred at a faster rate. The large temperature gradient would have an immediate and rapid transfer of heat within an object.
