Can waves transfer energy through liquids and solids but not through gases or empty space?
Some waves can transfer energy only through liquids and solids, but not through gases or vacuum. Some waves, like sound waves, can transfer energy through gases, liquids and solids but not through vacuum. And some waves, notably electromagnetic waves, can transfer energy through vacuum as well as matter.
How is energy conducted through a non-metallic solid?
the transfer of energy via the vibrating molecules of solids
Why do mechanical waves travel faster through solids and liquids than gases?
Mechanical waves involve the physical transfer of vibration from one particle to another within the medium. Denser materials (solids and liquids), have closer particles so this transfer of energy occurs more quickly. :)
Why are solids better heat conductors than liquids?
Solids are better heat conductors than liquids because their particles are closely packed and connected. In solids, heat energy moves easily through vibrations and strong bonds between particles. Liquids, on the other hand, have looser arrangements and weaker connections between particles, making it harder for heat to travel through them.
What energies can thermal energy transfer into?
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.
What is the transfer of energy between solids?
Conduction
What is Transfer of energy between solids?
Conduction
By which mode of heat transfer heat is transferred in solids?
the process of transfer of heat energy in solids is known as conduction.. For more info-- the process of transfer of heat energy in liquids and gases is known as convection.. And the process of transfer of heat energy without any material medium is known as radiation..
Can heat be conducted through solids?
Yes... the transfer of energy via the vibrating molecules of solids.....

Can heat be transferred only through solids?
No, energy will transfer between any adjacent bodies, moreover, a medium is not necessary for energy to transfer between objects at all. That would be a little thing called radiation.

Mechanical waves involve the physical transfer of vibration from one particle to another within the medium. Denser materials (solids and liquids), have closer particles so this transfer of energy occurs more quickly. :)
The direct transfer of molecular motion through solids?
The direct transfer of molecular motion through solids is called conduction
When 2 objects are in contact the hotter object will transfer heat to the cooler object by?
Through conduction. The atoms in the solids won't go anywhere, but will transfer their heat energy along.
Why does sound travel faster in solids than in liquids and gases?
Sound speed depends on the vibration of the particles, the velocity in which the kinetic energy moves between the particles. Solids have particles that are very close to each other, so the transfer of kinetic energy will occur rapidly. In liquids and gases , however, the particles are far apart, so the transfer of kinetic energy from one particle to another will take time.
