a)clinical thermometer
b)laboratory thermometer
c)min max thermometer
d)Laboratory thermometer
Answer:
The mode of heat transfer is as follows:
(1) A paper cup, full of hot soup, laying on a table - convection
It is usually the mode of heat transfer in liquids and gases.
(2) Cooking vegetables in a pan- conduction
The pan, which is in direct contact with the heat source, transfers the heat to the vegetables.
(3)- Melting of a chocolate bar, in the school bag, on a hot day- conduction
Conduction of heat takes place from the surroundings to the bag and finally to the chocolate.
(4) Cooking food in a microwave oven- Radiation
It is the mode of heat transfer in which there's no direct contact between the heat source and the molecules to be heated.
