An electric stove-top, hot water in a shower or bath, grabbing cold stuff out of the freezer/fridge... there are a lot.

What is the transfer of heat by conduction?
Transfer of heat by conduction is when transfer of heat occurs through touch. Vibrating atoms come in contact with neighboring atoms transferring some of their energy (heat).
Is conduction a method of heat transfer?
Yes. the other 2 methods by which heat is transferred is via convection and radiation.
Is the heat you fell from a fireplace called radiation?
Some of it is though you also get convection an conduction heat transfer
What is the transfer of energy as heat through a material?
That would normally be conduction unless the material is fluid - in which case you would have a combination of conduction and convection. In some cases a material may be sufficiently transparent to permit some heat transfer via radiation.
What are the main factys of conduction?
Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat energy through particles in contact with one another. Because heat energy is essentially kinetic energy, the particle with more kinetic energy collides with the particle with less kinetic energy, speeding it up and therefore causing it to absorb some of the heat energy from the first particle.
What are some examples of conduction?
some examples of conduction are:*Holding onto a metal pan handle while the pan is heating on the stove, you'll feel the heat eventually on your palm.*the earth's crust gets heat from inner earth , the warm mantle below.*ice on your hand*a metal spoon in hot soup
Why does heat travel faster by conduction in some objects?
Heat travels faster in some objects by conduction because they have free or mobile electrons for the conduction of heat energy.Such is the case with metals.
What are some examples of natural conduction?
well teams of scientists do say tectonic plate movement is an example of conduction. When plates move together it can generate heat. That heat transfers to the earth's crust I guess. I dont know if that last part was right though?

What are some ways heat is transfered?
By conduction,convection and radiation

What is the substance through which heat will travel by conduction?
Any substance will work for this. That is, any substance conducts heat, but some do so better than others. A substance that conducts heat well is called a conductor. Examples include all metals.

Some of it is though you also get convection an conduction heat transfer
What are some ways that conduction and convection are the same?
They both have to do with the transfer of heat energy.
What is earth conduction?
Conduction - in which a body's temperature is raised in one place and heat flows to cooler areas by diffusion as the molecules in the body vibrate more vigorously. No material is transported by conduction, only heat. Heat is transported by conduction in the crust where the material is rigid and cannot flow, and the temperature gradient is high. Conduction is very efficient in some materials like metals, and inefficient in others like air. Inefficient conductors are called insulators. ----
