What is the definition of CONDUCTION?

• When heat is transferred from objects like rays of light or electromagnetically.

• a hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense, and sinks.

• When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

What is the definition of CONVECTION

• When heat transfers through waves.

• When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

• a hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense, and sinks.

What kind of heat transfer happens when the sun is heating your body?

• Conduction

• Radiation

• Convection

Density changes are responsible for which method of thermal energy transfer?

• conduction only

• convection only

• radiation only

What are Conductors?

• A conductor is a material that allows heat to move through it easily

• an insulator

• A material or an object that does not easily allow heat, electricity, light, or sound to pass through it. Air, cloth and rubber are good electrical insulators; feathers and wool make good thermal insulators. Compare conductor.

A conductor allows energy to easily pass by.  

• True 
• False
