Front

How does heat transfer when a stovetop radiates heat to a pot?

Back

This is an example of radiation.

Front

In heat transfer, from where does heat always flow?

Back

Heat always flows from the hotter substance to the colder substance.

Front

What is conduction?

Back

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials.

Front

What is convection?

Back

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

Front

What is radiation?

Back

Radiation is the transfer of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves.

Front

Can you give an example of conduction?

Back

An example of conduction is a spoon getting hot in a cup of hot chocolate.

Front

Can you give an example of convection?

Back

An example of convection is warm air rising and cold air sinking, creating wind.
