What are the names and definitions of the three types of energy transfer?
convection: the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. conduction:the transfer of heat between two parts of a stationary system, caused by a temperature difference between the parts. radiation: the complete process in which energy is emitted by one body, transmitted through an intervening medium or space, and absorbed by another body
Compare Convection and conduction?
Convection and conduction are both means of heat transfer involving materials.Convection usually occurs in liquids and gases. Heated parts of these materials expand and become less dense. Pressure from the cooler, less light parts (due to gravity) pushes the lighter heated parts upwards. Near the surface , these cool, sink and circulate upwards again when heated.Conduction can occur in all substances but most efficiently in solids like metals where the particles are close together. If the particles in one part vibrate more when heated to a higher temperature, this vibration is passed along through the material. Conduction can occur in any direction but always from the hottest towards the coolest parts.
How do you reduce heat transfer?
Install better insulation between the source of heat and the parts that are being heated up!If it is a heat exchanger unit, increase the speed of coolant so that less heat can enter the coolant as it goes through the coils.
Which mode is heat transferred in liquid?
Heat in liquid is primarily transferred via convection and conduction. Conduction is a short range force, it arises from the transfer of energy via molecular vibration. Convection is more to do with the motion of the liquid as a whole. Conduction trasmits the heat from molecule to molecule, convection causes motion within the liquid due to hotter parts becoming less dense and rising.
How does convection of heat take place in liquids and gases?
The molecules get heated up ,gain energy and move to a new location thus transmitting heat from one part of the liquid to another.Similar things occur in gases. In the place being heated, the particles move more quickly because the heat energy is converted into kinetic energy in the particles. Faster moving particles collide more often and with more force and so they spread out, becoming less dense. Less dense fluids float on denser fluids so the heated particles start to rise. This has two effects. Firstly, denser, colder liquid cones in to replace the risen fluid, which can also be heated and rise. Also, the hotter, risen and more energetic particles start to transfer some of their energy to the colder fluid around them. This sets up a CONVECTION CURRENT of fluid rising where it is heated, spreading out at the top and falling back down in the colder parts of the fluid. and moving along the bottom to replace the rising warmed fluid. This carries the heat to the whole of the fluid.

What moves by convection?
Convection means 'the act of carrying.' In physics the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. In Meteorology it is the process in which masses of warm air are raised into the atmosphere, which then cool and form clouds
Does it take heat to turn a liquid to a gas?
yes just like it takes heat to turn a solid into a liquid Yes. The more heat the faster movement of parts of mass (solid or liquid or gas). Power of fast movement than overcomes power keeping the thing together.</
What is the function of blood vessels of the villi?
I believe the function is to transfer oxygen to other parts of the body.
What are chemo tropism and hydro tropism?
Chemotropism : The movement of plant parts in response to chemical stimulus is called chemotropism. example- formation of pollen tube by pollen grains in order to transfer male gamete to the ovary. Hydrotropism : The movement of plant parts in response to water is called hydrotropism. example- movement of roots in search of water.
Are all parts of the Earth heated evenly?
no
How are metals molded?
Metal sheets can be moulded into car body parts in powerful presses, for instance. Metals can be heated into a liquid and run into moulds to form caste metal fittings, etc.

Why does a egg change color when heated biology?
The parts of the egg (proteins) have become denatured when heated (cooked).
What does skeleton movement mean in a clock?
It refers to the movement of the inner workings of the clock; when movement of the inner parts of the clock or "skeleton" parts are visible.
What is it called when thermal energy passes from particle to particle?
Vibrating particles have vibration energy and they pass their energy to neighboring particles vibrating with less intensity. This happens in solids, wherethis energy is transferred from a hot region (where particles vibrate with more intensity) to a cooler region (where particles vibrate with less intensity). This transfer of energy is heat transfer, and this mechanism of heat transfer is called "conduction".
