What is conduction?

Back

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between materials.

Front

What is convection?

Back

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through the movement of fluids (liquids and gases).

Front

What is the difference between heat and temperature?

Back

Heat is the total energy of molecular motion, while temperature measures the average energy of molecular motion.
