What is the definition of CONDUCTION?

• 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 thermal energy transfers by collisions between particles.

• When heat transfers through the heater or AC in your house.

What is the definition of CONVECTION

• When heat transfers through waves.

• When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

• The transfer of thermal energy in a fluid (liquid/gas) by movement of warm / cool fluids.

• Heat traveling from the sun
