suppose there is snow in a hot day. first they have different temperatures. but the snow transfers energy to the heat energy to the hotness. the hotness loses heat energy, so its temperature decreases. the snow gains so its temperature rises. so now everything is the same.

Is body heat convection heat?

Yep, the heat is transferred via convection when fluid flow is involved, which is primarily blood flow. For example, you hands are cold, then warm blood flow helps to warm them up. That's convection. Sure conduction is also involved. When heat must pass solid barrier such as cell walls then the heat is transferred via conduction.


Transfer of heat by the flow of heated material?

Convection oven is an example. A convector is a general name for something that transfers heat by convection.


What is something that resists the flow of heat or electricity?

Something that resists the flow of heat or electricity is called and insulator. An example of this would be rubber. That is why we have rubber around all of our computer cords, lamp cords, phone chargers, etc.


Does heat energy flow indefinitely?

No, heat does not flow indefinitely. Heat stops flowing the temperatures are equal.


Does heat flow cooler or smaller object?

Heat flow's from cooler objects.


Is heat flow the same between the continental and oceanic crust?

Apparently No, heat flow in oceanic crust is higher than continental crust


If there is a difference in temperature between 2 objects which way does the heat always move?

Heat will naturally flow from a hotter object to a colder object. To make it flow in the opposite direction requires some additional energy input (for example, in a refrigerator).


What is downward heat flow?

negative heat


What three things make heat flow?

Heat flow is made by conduction, convection or radiation.


How can energy be carried from one place to another by heat flow and by waves?

heat flow and waves


What will cause heat to flow slowly?

Interatomic separation causes heat to flow slowly. As there will be time involved in transferring heat at a gap.


When Flow of heat by direct contact is known as?

False... The flow of heat through direct contact is conduction.
