Question

What are three ways of transfer of heat? Define them.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Heat is transfered via solid material (conduction), liquids and gases (convection), and electromagnetical waves (radiation).

• Heat is usually transfered in a combination of these three types and seldomly occurs on its own.

Heat can be transferred in three ways:

• Conduction is the transfer of energy from one molecule to another by direct contact.
• Convection is the movement of heat by a fluid such as water or air.
• Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves.
