1
New cards

conduction

Particles bump into one another to transfer hear energy. Heat is transferred through solids.

2
New cards

convection

Hot air rises and cold air falls. Heat is transferred through fluids. Creates a convection current.

3
New cards

radiation

heat is transferred as a wave. Heat can be transferred through empty space (no matter).

4
New cards

convection currents

movement of energy from one place to another

5
New cards

example of conduction

the heat from a stovetop transferring to a pot filled with water

6
New cards

example of convection

Sea breeze or land breeze caused by a difference in pressure.

7
New cards

example of radiation

5G technology, cell phones, cell phone towers and antennas.

8
New cards

1 conduction (fire)

energy transferred by direct contact

9
New cards

2 convection

energy transferred by molecular motion

10
New cards

3 radiation

energy transferred by electromagnetic waves
