6.2.4 Engineering, Conductors & Insulators

Before making a final product it is important to:

• Consider the location

• Measure the mass

• Make and test a model

Conduction is:

• the force of gravity on an object

• the transfer of friction between two objects

• the transfer of thermal energy between particles of matter that are touching

• the transfer of thermal energy between moving objects that are far from each other

Conduction is usually slower in:

• solids

• liquids

• gases
