Heat Transfer

In a lava lamp, the warm part rises and the cool part sinks.  This is an example of 

• heat computation
• convection
• conduction
• radiation

The pan heats food through direct contact.  This is an example of 

• convection
• conduction
• radiation
• transformation

When the temperatures of materials that are in contact are the same, the materials are said to be in thermal _____________________

• equations
• equilateral
• equilibrium
• unison

Heat transfer through electromagnetic waves is called 

• conduction
• convection
• radiaton
• thermal

_________________ are observed in liquids and gases (air).

• convection currents
• radiation waves
• thermal conductivity
• conductors

__________________ is the change of state between a solid directly to a gas.

• vaporization
• evaporation
• melting
• sublimation

________________________ is the change of state from a liquid to a gas.

• vaporization
• sublimation
• melting
• boiling point

The metal in a pan is a thermal _____________________ because thermal energy is able to move through this material quickly and easily.

• conductor
• insulator
• regulator
• temperature

The movement of thermal energy from a region of _________________ temperature to a region of _____________________ temperature is called heat.

• higher, lower
• cooler, warmer
• lower, higher
• medium, medium

The rubber that makes up the handle on the pan is considered a thermal ___________________ because thermal energy moves slowly through this material.

• conductor
• insulator
• regulator
• temperature
