How do you explain the difference between conduction convection or radiation can transfer heat explain?

It's a different way to transfer heat. One object emits electromagnetic radiation (for example, infrared - though it depends on the temperature); another object absorbs it. Heat transfer through radiation can occur in empty space; with conduction and convection, that's not possible.

Explain how you could feel heat from a radiator by more than one method of transfer?

you can feel it from convection. (heater on ground) you can feel it from conduction. (spoon in soup) you can feel it from radiation. (light)

by convection and conduction


What is the difference between an example and a definition?

An example is where someone asks you what something is you show them instead of tell them. A definition is where you explain what something is.

Explain hoe heat travels by conduction?

Heat travels by conduction by directly touching another object, absorbing its energy.


Is the heat transferred from a hot zinc roof to a person below it a good example of heat transfer by radiation Explain?

Yes - this should be a good example of heat transfer by radiation. It is unlikely you will transfer heat by natural convection since the roof is above the person and any heated air will rise to the roof rather than sink from the roof down to the person. Air is a rather poor conductor of heat so any heat transfer by conduction from the roof down to the person will be very slow. In contrast to this, the tin roof, if hot enough will be a fairly good heat radiator - enough that it could be sensed by a person below, i.e. they will feel the radiant heat transfer.
