What is the definition of CONDUCTION?

When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

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 through the heater or AC in your house.

What is the definition of CONVECTION

When heat is transferred by movement of gas or liquids. It is also when gas/liquid becomes less dense and rises or becomes more dense and sinks.

When heat transfers through waves.

When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

Heat transfers from an area of ____temperature to an area of ___ temperature.

It can travel high to low and low to high.

What causes the circulation of air in the atmosphere?

The ground is heated by the sun and then heats the air, causing the air to rise.

Air in the atmosphere is heated by the sun and sinks to the ground.

Air loses heat to the ground and then rises upward to obtain more energy.

The sun heats the clouds which forces the cooler air to move away and sink.

What is the original source of most of the energy on the surface of the Earth?

Energy that reaches Earth by radiation from the sun.

Energy that reaches the earth by convection from the sun.

Energy that reaches the earth by radiation from the core.

Energy that reaches the earth by conduction from the core.

Which statement is true?

The quicker a molecule moves, the warmer it is

The quicker a molecule moves, the colder it is.

The slower a molecule moves, the warmer it is.

The movement on molecule don�t affect its temperature

About this resource

Step into the fascinating world of heat transfer with our engaging Quizizz assessment on "Convection, Conduction, & Radiation," crafted specifically for 7th-8th grade science students. This quiz, designed by esteemed science educator Nadine Nobiling, features 20 multiple-choice questions that challenge students' understanding of thermal energy. With a medium difficulty level, it has already captivated over 600 students, offering real-world applications of heat transfer principles. Key SEO terms like heat transfer, conduction, convection, radiation, thermal energy, insulators, and conductors are seamlessly integrated to enhance your learning experience. Understanding the three main types of heat transfer—conduction, convection, and radiation—is crucial in science education. Conduction involves heat transfer through direct contact between objects or molecules, while convection occurs through the movement of liquids and gases. Radiation, on the other hand, involves heat transfer through electromagnetic waves without needing a medium. Real-world applications, such as how metal spoons heat up in hot water, why dark surfaces absorb more sunlight, and how air currents form, are explored to deepen students' comprehension. These concepts not only align with K–12 curriculum standards but also foster critical thinking skills essential for young learners. Get ready to master the principles of heat transfer with Quizizz, where learning is both interactive and fun! Our platform offers immediate feedback, visual aids, and game-like elements that make studying an adventure. With the ability to practice at your own pace, you'll build a solid foundation for future science learning. Don't just learn about heat transfer—experience it! Embrace your scientific curiosity and let Quizizz guide you on an exciting journey through the world of thermal energy.
