Can heat transfer occur when two substances are the same temperature?
yes your mum had heat transfer with your dad
What are the different types of heat transfer?
There are three types of heat transfer, namely conduction, convection and radiation. Heat is transferred until the reach a state of equilibrium. Conduction is basically the transfer of heat through a surface of contact, such as a fire to the base of a pot. We say that a material is a good or poor conductor of heat when heat travels quickly or slowly in that particular material. Good conductors of heat are metals whereas poor conductors of heat are rubber and Styrofoam. Conduction cannot occur in a vacuum. Convection is the transfer of heat through molecules. It can only occur in liquids and gases as there are relatively big spaces between the molecules. A convection current is where hot air rises and cold air sinks. Convection cannot occur in a vacuum. Radiation is the transfer of heat through a vacuum. Heat is transferred from the Sun to Earth through radiation.
What is the difference between heat transfer and mass transfer?
Heat transfer deals with the movement of heat and temperature gradients. The three types of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Mass transfer deals with concentrations of a particular substance. Types of mass transfer include diffusion and convection.
What are 3 types of heat transfer in your home?
What are three types of heat tranfers in a building
How would heat transfer occur in water in a pot?
water would heat up
How do hurricanes transfer heat?
through wind and circulating air.
What type of heat transfer is it when we receive sunlight?
It is radiation, as that is the only heat transfer that can occur in a vacuum (the universe).

What is the relationship between oceans and a hurricane?
The warmer the ocean's temperature, the more hurricanes that occur. The reason being: hurricanes feed on heat and water!
Radiation is the only type of heat transfer that can occur?
Radiation is the only type of heat transfer that can occur through vacuum (space with no particles).
How would heat transfer occur in water in a pot?
water would heat up
What condition must exist for transfer of heat to occur?
There must be a temperature difference between two bodies or regions, with heat naturally flowing from the higher temperature to the lower temperature. Additionally, there must be a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, through which the heat can be transferred via conduction, convection, or radiation.
How do the three types of heat transfer work together to to heat the troposphere?
three types of heat transfer work together to heat the troposphere by heating the solid with (conduction) air ( convection) and radiation from the sun.
