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.
Convection only occurs in due to particles moving not just heat transfer as in conduction?
Yes, convection is the transfer of heat through bulk movement of a fluid, gas or liquid. The movement can be natural caused by density differences, or can be forced.
What do conduction convection and radiation mean?
conduction is the transfer of heat between two surfaces in contact with each other convection is the transfer of heat into a moving fluid radiation is the transfer of heat via electromagnetic waves
What is heat energy moving between two touching objects called?
conduction
Heat energy moving between two touching objects is called?
conduction
What is the transfer of heat by particles colliding with each other called?
That sounds like a description of heat conduction.

How are conduction and heat similar?
Conduction is one of modes of heat transfer. Remember "heat" is energy in transit. If it isn't moving from one place to another, it's just internal energy. When we talk about conduction we are talking about heat transferring between things in contact with one another. Other modes of heat transfer are convection (hot liquid or gas moving from one place to another because of differences in density or because it is pushed, like by a fan), and radiation - which is how the sun heats up the earth.

Transfer of heat by hot liquids and gases?
Convection is the transfer with in the fluid. If a container of hot liquid is touching something then it is conduction. If the heat is travelling through the air then it is radiation.
What is the basic theory of heat transfer?
Heat transfer occurs by convection, conduction and radiation. In conduction, heat is transferred through collision of rapidly moving molecules. It is only through successive collision of molecules that heat transfers through an object.

conduction
What is it called when thermal energy is moving from a warmer object to a cooler object?
conduction
Heat energy moving between two touching objects is called?
conduction
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 the heat transfer is moving heat from the pot handle into the person hand?
Within the pot handle (solid) heat transfer is by conduction. Within a persons hand heat is transferred namely by conduction. Heat convection does occur by motion of the body fluids but it's slower. When you grab the hot handle of a pot you can immediately feel the sensation of "hot".Heat conduction is the mechanism responsible for this fast transfer.
