How hot would multiple surface sun temperature items be?

3,759
322
I was wondering, is there a way to tell how hot something is if the item has the same temperature as the surface of the sun while on the surface of the sun itself? would the item be hotter from being close to the sun? Would their temperature double?

This item would be the size of a hand gun for reference.
 
Nothing would change.

According to the second law of thermodynamics, the energy of a hotter objects gets transferred to a colder object...which in turn cools the hotter object.
But if they are the same temperature; there would be no energy transferring, and thus no increase or decrease in temperature in either.
Temperature between objects always tries to reach an equilibrium (as it is the most "stable", which the universe always tries to achieve an equilibrium in energy).

Think of a glass of room temp water with ice.
The hotter water will transfer heat to the ice, which causes the ice to melt and the water to cool until they reach the same temperature where the ice stops melting and the water stops getting colder.

I see, thank you.
