Conduction Convection and Radiation

The heat from a lamp allows a lizard to remain warm. This is an example of which type of heat transfer?

• radiation
• conduction
• convection
• insulation

Which will most likely occur when raw egg is placed on black pavement on a hot, summer day?

• The pavement will conduct the heat and cook the egg.
• The egg will reflect the heat and make the pavement hotter underneath.
• The egg will absorb the heat  and leave the pavement hotter underneath.
• The pavement will absorb the heat from the egg, and the egg will stay raw.

Jordan 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.
