S1 Conduction, Convection, Radiation
Question | Answer |
---|---|
The transfer of heat by direct contact between particles is called | conduction |
The transfer of heat into liquids and gases through currents is called | convection |
The transfer of heat by infrared waves is called | radiation |
A metal spoon gets hot in boiling water is an example of | conduction |
A egg on a frying pan sizzles when it cooks is an example of | conduction |
An ice cube in a hand begins to melt is an example of | conduction |
A metal cup gets hot when boiling water is poured in it | conduction |
When cool air sinks to the ground on a warm night is an example of | convection |
When air is warmer near the ceiling than the floor is an example of | convection |
When toes are warmer in front of a space heater is an example of | radiation |
When the sun melts a icy lawn is an example of | radiation |
Is the sun the source of all of our energy | yes |
What are the three types of heat transfers | conduction,convection and radiation |
Radiation is the transfer of heat by | infrared waves |
Conduction transfers heat by | direct contact |
Convection transfers heat in liquids and gases by creating a.... | Convection current |
Conduction is the direct transfer of heat energy when molecules... | vibrate and bump into each other |
As cold air becomes more dense it pushes up warmer air creating a...... | Convection current |
What is Heat? | A type of Energy |
What is temperature? | A measure of how much heat energy a substance has |
What is an Insulator | A substance that does not allow heat energy to pass through it easily |
What is a Conductor | A substance that DOES allow heat energy to pass through it easily |
What group of substances are good conductors | Metals |
What happens to the DENSITY of liquids or gases when they are heated? | Density decreases |
Do LESS dense substances rise or fall in their surroundings? | Rise |
