Which of the following best defines CONDUCTION?

• Transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquids, and gases when two substances of different temperatures touch

• Heat transfer caused by the rising of hotter, less dense fluids and the falling of the cooler, denser fluids

• Energy transferred between two objects of different temperatures that moves continually in a predictable pattern, from a warmer site to a cooler site, until all sites have reached the same temperature

• The transfer of energy by the movement of electromagnetic waves or subatomic particles

Which of the following defines convection?

• Transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquids, and gases when two substances of different temperatures touch

• Heat transfer caused by the rising of hotter, less dense fluids and the falling of the cooler, denser fluids

• Energy transferred between two objects of different temperatures that moves continually in a predictable pattern, from a warmer site to a cooler site, until all sites have reached the same temperature

• The transfer of energy by the movement of electromagnetic waves or subatomic particles
