Neumann/Energy in Earth's Atmosphere and Heat Transfer

Heat transfer occurs:

• in many directions
• both from warm objects to colder ones and from cold objects to warmer ones
• only from warm objects to colder ones
• only from cold objects to warmer ones

You're holding hands with your best friend.  Your friend's hands are REALLY warm and yours are really cold.  After a few minutes, this has changed.  How might you explain what happened?

• The cold energy from your hand transferred to your friend's hand through conduction.
• The heat energy from your friend's hand transferred to your hand through conduction. 
• The cold energy from your hand transferred to your friend's hand through convection.
• The heat energy from your friend's hand transferred to your hand through convection.

Lillian places a hot spoon into a container of ice cream. How does this help him scoop  out the ice cream? 

• The coolness from the ice cream is conducted to the spoon making it easier to scoop out.

• The coolness from the ice cream is radiated to the spoon making it easier to scoop out.

• The warmth of the spoon is conducted to the ice cream  making it easier to scoop out.

• The warmth of the spoon is radiated  to the ice cream making it easier to scoop out.

Which describes what can happen as a result of radiation?

•  A piece of wood burns in a fire.
• A shirt is hot after having been  ironed.
• A can of soup is heated in a pot on a stove.
• A car’s inside temperature rises  to over 100 degrees on a sunny day.

Which best describes the process of convection?

• Convection is the primary way  heat travels  through rays.
• Convection is the primary way heat travels  through metals.
• Convection is the primary way heat travels  through appliances.
• Convection is the primary way heat travels  through liquids and gasses.
