a: heat ~
b: the amount of water in a towel

What:

"A useful physical analogy is Feynman's - heat is like the amount of water in a towel, while temperature is the "wetness." Given two towels of the same "wetness" the bigger one contains more water. A small towel can be much "wetter" but contain less water than a big towe "
