Why heat cannot be conducted through vaccum?

Conduction requires a medium. In vacuum there is no medium through which heat can be conducted. However, heat can be transmitted through vacuum in the form of radiation.

Is heat a conductor?

No, it is not. Heat is something that gets conducted, not a conductor. Heat transfers through objects and mediums so no it is not.


What is an example of transfer of heat through conduction?

Boiling a pot of water on the stove. The heat couldn't reach the water if it were not conducted through the metal pot.


Can heat be conducted through solids?

Yes... the transfer of energy via the vibrating molecules of solids.....


What is an example of conduction in the home?

When you bake, the outside of the oven gets hot. Heat conducted through the exterior.


Is barbecuing radiation convection or conduction?

Barbecuing, depending on what specific process it is referring to, could be either radiation, convection, or conduction. Radiation is when energy is released in the form of a photon, so the flames of the barbecue (light energy) are a form of radiation. Conduction is when energy is transferred through contact, or collision, therefore, the things you are cooking on the barbecue, are being heated through conduction with the metal. Convection is when energy travels through energy-containing particles (other than photons), so the steam rising from the coals is convection currents.


What is the main cause of heat loss in a normal thermos flask?

The main heat loss in a good thermos flask, is due to heat conducted through the material. (Glass or Stainless Steel). There should be little heat lost through the vacuum of the flask.


Why can not heat be conducted by vacuum?

No heat OR electricity can be conducted in a vacuum because of the mere fact that a vacuum has no particles in it that can vibrate to produce heat in the first place


Will heat be conducted along the length of a metal rod when the whole rod has a uniform temperature?

No. Heat is conducted from a region of high temperature to that of lower temperature. If the whole rod is at the same temperature then there is no temperature gradient and so no heat will be conducted.
