Energy can be transferred from one particle to another by radiation or conduction. In conduction, the particles are "touching" and the "vibration" of one increases the "vibration" of the other. A metal pan is heated on the bottom, but the heat is conducted throughout the pan by thermal conduction. This is an instance where atomic or molecular motion is the energy that is being transferred. In radiation, an atom or molecule can release a low energy photon, which is electromagnetic energy, and this photon can carry energy to and transfer it into another atom or molecule. You may have experienced thermal heating by radiation by looking at a blazing fire from a short distance. The heat you feel on your face is radiant heat. Photons are leaving the fire (or then can leave any hot object) and travel through space directly to your skin, where you can feel it.

What is The transfer of energy to one object touching another?
electromagnetism
Transfer of energy from particle to particle when there is a temperature difference?
conduction
When two objects are touching and transfer heat is called what?
Energy
What do you call the transfer of energy?
Conduction is the transfer of energy from one object to another.
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.
