When you boil water what do the particles do?

The particles gain energy (kinetic energy) and begin to vibrate. This vibration causes heat. As the particle vibrates, it will collide with other particles in water and pass this energy on to neighbouring particles which causes the heat conduction.


What heat transfer is where heat energy is transferred by particles to neighbouring particles?

That is called conduction.


What is it called when thermal energy passes from particle to particle?

Vibrating particles have vibration energy and they pass their energy to neighboring particles vibrating with less intensity. This happens in solids, wherethis energy is transferred from a hot region (where particles vibrate with more intensity) to a cooler region (where particles vibrate with less intensity). This transfer of energy is heat transfer, and this mechanism of heat transfer is called "conduction".


What is conductioin?

Conduction is the movement of heat through particles, it is very closely linked to kinetic energy because heat is the just the movement of particles, heat is conducted when the particles bump into each other and pass on the energy as a vibration.


What in the house uses conduction?

A spoon in a cup of tea.If a spoon was left in a hot cup of tea conduction would happen. Particles in the part of the spoon that is in the hot cup of tea will use the heat/thermal energy of this as kinetic energy. These particles will then pass this kinetic energy (whilst still keeping some in themselves,) to the particles next to them. This will continue until all the particles in the spoon have kinetic energy.


What is the transfer of energy by movement of particles?

Conduction.


Energy is transferred through matter by direct contact of particles by?

Conduction.


Is conduction faster in denser solids?

Usually conduction is faster in denser solids, because the particles are closer together and so will collide more often and pass energy between them.


What is a source of conduction?

Conduction itself can have no source. Conduction is the action of moving kinetic energy through particles using vibration.


When particles transfer energy by bumping into each other what is it called?

Conduction.


What is the process in which heat is transferred down a metal rod?

Heat is conducted from one end of the rod to the other by atoms transferring energy from one to the next. Heat is energy given off by rapidly moving particles. As the heated particles move, they bump particles next to them. Those particles begin to move, then the next, and next, and so forth on down the rod.


The transfer of energy through matter by direct cantact of particles is called?
