Define conduction and convention
Answers
Explanation:
Thermal conduction is the transfer of internal energy by microscopic collisions of particles and movement of electrons within a body. The colliding particles, which include molecules, atoms and electrons, transfer disorganized microscopic kinetic and potential energy, jointly known as internal energy.
Answer:
Conduction
Thermal conduction, transfer of energy (heat) arising from temperature differences between adjacent parts of a body.
example- Sand can conduct heat. This is why walking on the beach on a hot summer day will warm your feet.
Convection
the process of heat transfer by the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids.
Example- Boiling of water- When water boils, the heat passes from the burner into the pot, heating the water at the bottom. This hot water rises and cooler water moves down to replace it, causing a circular motion.
