In the example of boiling water, what happens to the water particles near the heat source?

• They evaporate immediately

• They stay in place

• They move randomly and create empty spaces

• They cool down and sink

How does heat transfer occur in radiation?

• Through direct contact

• Without any medium

• By the movement of air

• Through the movement of particles in a fluid

Which of the following is an example of radiation?

• Warm air rising and cool air sinking

• Heat from the sun warming the Earth

• Heat from a stove transferring to a steel pan

• Boiling water in a pot

What happens to a hot body as it radiates heat?

• It becomes hotter

• It remains at the same temperature

• It becomes cold

• It evaporates
