• the transfer of heat energy from a warmer object to a cooler object

• a reference point

• an insulatr

• the transfer of heat energy from a cooler object to a warmer object

the transfer of thermal energy when particles of a fluid (liquid or gas) move from one place to another

• convection

• conduction

• radiation

• all of these

occurs when a fluid circulates in a loop as it alternately heats up and cools down

• thermodynamics

• heat engine

• convection current

• none of these

An example of a convection current is

• a lava lamp

• a fan driven oven

• a hurricane

• all of these
