Exploring Heat Transfer: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation

The video tutorial revisits concepts from the second quarter, focusing on heat transfer methods: conduction, convection, and their applications in ocean currents. The teacher uses real-life examples, such as the wind patterns in Alaska, to illustrate these concepts. The session concludes with a reminder for students to prepare for the next class discussion.

What are the three main processes of heat transfer?

• Conduction, Convection, Radiation

• Conduction, Convection, Insulation

• Convection, Radiation, Insulation

• Radiation, Conduction, Insulation

Why does metal feel colder than wood at the same temperature?

• Metal reflects heat more than wood

• Heat transfers more quickly through metal

• Wood is a better conductor of heat

• Metal absorbs heat faster than wood

Which method of heat transfer occurs in solids?

• Convection

• Radiation

• Insulation

• Conduction

How does convection relate to ocean currents?

• It has no effect on ocean currents

• It only affects the surface of the ocean

• It creates a circular movement of water

• It causes water to evaporate

Why was there no wind in the tree line near the glacier?

• The trees blocked the wind

• The wind was too weak to reach the tree line

• The air was warmer in the tree line

• The wind was only at the glacier's base

What causes the cold air from the glacier to push down towards the ground?

• The glacier's movement

• The warm air pushes it down

• The cold air is more dense

• The cold air is less dense

What is the main reason for the constant wind at the glacier's base?

• The glacier's melting ice

• The dense cold air from the glacier

• The surrounding forest

• The warm air from the sun
