How does heat transfer from one object to another through conduction?
Yes, conduction is when two objects are touching. For instance if you touch the stove thermal energy from the stove goes into your hand burning you.
In order for two objects to have heat transfer through conduction they must be?
in thermal contact with each other
Does heat being transferred to radiation when things touch?
No heat transfer through objects touching is called conduction. Transfer by radiation occurs when heat moves in the form of electromagnetic waves such as light or infrared rays. The warmth you feel from sunlight is an example of radiation.
What type of energy transfer is the transfer of heat through matter by molecular activity?
Because of molecular vibration the heat transferred through a solid is called CONDUCTION
What type of heat transfer occurs when two things are touching?
Yes, it is called transfer by conduction.Transfer by radiation requires no contact and transfer by convection requires contact through an intermediate moving fluid.

What is the transfer of energy through objects?
It is called conduction.
The transfer of heat from one thing to another by direct physical contact?
Conduction is the transfer of heat throgh solid objects in direct contact. The other two types of heat transfer are convection (through liquids and gases) and radiation (through gases and a vacuum).
How is the atmosphere near the earth's surface warmed?
Through conduction: the transfer of energy from matter touching another matter.
What is the transfer of heat by contact called?
Conduction.
When 2 objects are in contact the hotter object will transfer heat to the cooler object by?
Through conduction. The atoms in the solids won't go anywhere, but will transfer their heat energy along.

How thermal energy travel?
Thermal energy travels by conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction occurs when two or more objects of different temperatures are touching each other. The heat flows from the warmer object to the cooler object, until the objects reach equal temperatures. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through a moving liquid or gas. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy though matter and space.

Which type of heat transfer is by direct contract?
The type of heat transfer by direct contact is called conduction. Heat is transferred through a solid material or between two objects in direct contact with each other. This occurs as the particles in the material or objects collide and transfer energy to each other.
