Conduction is...

• when heat is transferred through direct contact.

• when heat is transferred from a far away heat source.

• when heat is transferred through cycling of air/water.

• when heat moves all the time.

Which method of heat transfer is the fastest and why?

• Radiation because the sun is super hot. It will heat things faster.

• Convection because the cycling is continuous, making it faster.

• Conduction because it warms the object directly by touching it.

• The oven because it cooks meals quickly at my house.
