What process transfers thermal energy through matter directly from particle to particle?

conduction


Which process transfers thermal energy through a vacuum?

Radiation, e.g. in case of the heat from Sun, solar radiation transfers it to the planets and other outer space objects.


Which process transfers thermal energy by contact?

This proess is called conduction. The other processes are convection and radiation. Convection is the transfer of energy through movement, such as boiling water. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through a medium or space, such as the sun heating the earth.


What is the flow of thermal energy through a liquid or gas?

Some three types of heat transfers are convection, radiation and conduction.


Which process transfers energy primarily by eletromagnetic wave traveling through empty space?

Electromagnetic radiation


What is the main process energy is transferred through the copper wall of the water tank?

thermal


Why are the sides of the saucepan made out of steel?

So that the heat from the fire or hob that is underneath it can heat the object inside as metal is a conductor.


What type of energy does a crank flashlight go through. mechanical or thermal?

"Go through"? The process of charging and using a crank flashlight includes the existence of thermal, mechanical, electromagnetic, sound and radiation energy.


The matter through which waves transfers energy?

The matter through which waves transfers energy is a medium.


What is the process of initiating a chemical reaction by passing an electric current through an electrolytic solution?

This process is the thermal decomposition.


What is transfer of thermal energy from one substance to another?

This is heating and cooling. Direct transfer from one solid to another is conduction. Transferring through fluids (liquids or gases) normally uses convection. and heat being projected through a space, usually as light or infra-red, is radiation.Heat is the term that defines something that transfers thermal energy efficiently.


How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?

Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.
