It can be transferred in three ways: Conduction, convection, and radiation.

Conduction is transfer through a substance by contact between atoms. Convection is transfer in a gas (air) by causing air currents due to density effects. Convection can also happen in fluids like water. Radiation is by electromagnetic waves at the infra-red frequencies.

example water in a pot is cool its particles dont have much kinetic energy so its teperature is low, but the particles in the pot when it is hot it has more kinetic energy the waters temerpature is high!

hope this helps!

What are three ways energy can be transferred?

Three examples:1) Anything falling under gravity. Gravitational potential energy is being transferred into kinetic energy, i.e. speed.2) In a turbine. Moving the rotors round on a turbine turns kinetic into electric energy.3) Electric cooking hobs. The electrical energy is dissipated to release thermal energy (heats up).


What material poorly conducts thermal energy?

Thermal energy is the internal energy of a system in thermodynamic equilibrium by virtue of its temperature. A hot body has more thermal energy than a similar cold body, but a large tub of cold water may have more thermal energy than a cup of boiling water. Thermal energy can be transferred from one body, usually hotter, to a second body, usually colder, in three ways: conduction , convection, and radiation. Insulator
