Front

What is conduction?

Back

The transfer of heat through direct contact between materials.

Front

What is convection?

Back

The transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids and gases).

Front

Give an example of conduction.

Back

Front

Give an example of radiation.

Back

The warmth felt from the sun on your skin.

Front

What is the main difference between conduction and convection?

Back

Conduction requires direct contact, while convection involves the movement of fluids.

Front

What is a real-life application of radiation?

Back

Microwave ovens use radiation to heat food.

Front

How does convection affect weather patterns?

Back

Convection currents in the atmosphere can create wind and storms.
