Exploring Heat Transfer: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation

What is heat primarily considered as?

• A type of matter

• A form of energy

• A chemical reaction

• A physical object

What happens to an ice cream on a hot sunny day?

• It becomes colder

• It melts

• It remains the same

• It evaporates

How is the hotness or coldness of an object determined?

• By its temperature

• By its size

• By its shape

• By its color

What are all objects made up of?

• Atoms

• Molecules

• Cells

• Ions

What happens to molecules when an object is heated?

• They move slower

• They stop moving

• They change shape

• They move faster

In which state of matter does conduction primarily occur?

• Gases

• Plasma

• Liquids

• Solids

Which of the following is an example of conduction?

• Heat from the sun warming the Earth

• Boiling water

• Warm air rising

• Heat from a hot pan cooking food

How is heat transferred in convection?

• Through empty space

• By the movement of liquid or gas

• By solid objects

• Through direct contact

Which process involves heat transfer without direct contact?

• Conduction

• Convection

• Radiation

• Evaporation

What should you do to protect yourself from too much heat?

• Stay in the sun longer

• Wear heavy clothing

• Drink more water

• Avoid drinking water
