Through conduction. The atoms in the solids won't go anywhere, but will transfer their heat energy along.

Is the sun hotter or cooler than red and blue stars?
The sun is hotter than red stars but cooler than blue stars,
Is earths mantle hotter or cooler than the crust?
The mantle is hotter than the crust.
The bigger the hotter the star the what?
The bigger the COOLER the brighter.
Would you expect the mantle to be hotter or cooler than the inner and outer cores?
I expect for the mantle to be cooler
How are temperature and color in stars linked?
The hotter they are, the bluer they are, the cooler they are, the redder they are.
When two objects at different temperature make contact what happens?
When two objects at different temperatures make contact, thermal energy tends to flow from the hotter object to the cooler object. This transfer of heat continues until the two objects reach thermal equilibrium, meaning they reach the same temperature.
What is meant by conduction heat transfer?
Conduction heat transfer refers to the process of heat transfer between two objects or regions in direct contact with each other. This transfer occurs due to the collision and transfer of energy between the molecules of the objects. It relies on the physical contact and proximity of the objects for heat to be conducted from the hotter object to the cooler one.
When two objects of different temperature are in contact heat energy will flow from the hotter to the cooler object?
Yes, that is correct.
What is the energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object called?
The energy itself is called "heat" or thermal energy. The process is called heat transfer and for objects in contact, it is "conduction" (as opposed to convection or radiation).
How is equilibrium established?
Thermal equilibrium is established by the transfer of heat energy from the hotter object to the cooler object until both objects are at the same temperature.
Which kind of heat transfer involves direct contact between the molecules of the hotter object and the colder object?
Conduction involves the direct contact between two objects to transfer heat.
How is thermal equilibrium established?
Thermal equilibrium is established by the transfer of heat energy from the hotter object to the cooler object until both objects are at the same temperature.
Describe how energy flows between hotter and cooler objects?
from radiation and convection
The energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler object?
it called heat transfer!
What is the energy transferred from a hotter object to a cooler one is referred to as what?
heat transfer
Does thermal energy moves?
Such energy can be transferred. Usually it will transfer from hotter objects to colder objects.
Which law of thermodynamics states that when two objects of different temperature are in contact heat energy will flow from the hotter to the cooler object?
newton's 1st law in thermodynamics.....
