Keeping a solid or liquid at a constant volume, while increasing the temperature, would require an enormous pressure - an unrealistic assumption.

What method of heat transfer is used when cooking a baked potato in the microwave?
When heat is transferred by microwaves, that is called radiant heat transfer.
What heat transfer is being used when a heat lamp is heating a box?
conduction
What heat transfer is used when a fan is blowing?
Actually, there isn't any heat transfer when a fan is blowing. But, if you really need the answer, the closest one would be radiation.
What units are used to express a heat transfer?
conduction, convention, and radiation
Can a cold spoon transfer heat?
No. Heat can only be transferred to a cold spoon, not the other way round (as there is no heat in a cold spoon to transfer). A simple example is when a cold teaspoon is used to stir a hot cup of tea. When the spoon is withdrawn, it is hot.
What fluid instead of water can be used as a heat transfer in domestic heating system?
Liquid sodium
Why is there no heat transfer by convection in solids?
In a plasma, especially an extreme case like the interior of the Sun, things can get tricky. This is a fluid, but the energy density of electromagnetic energy is high and it "flows" through a process that is really not adequately characterized in the terms we normally use for radiative heat transfer. Instead, terms like "photon diffusion" are used to explain the process.
Is it true that the pipettes are used to transfer solids from one container to another?
Transfer pipettes, also called Pasteur pipettes, are used to transfer small quantities of liquid from one container to another. They cannot be used to move a specific volume, they are just used for approximations. The only time they would be used to transfer solids would be solids suspended in a liquid solution.
What is heat conductor used for?
Its used to transfer heat into electrical signal
What are the method to trasfer heat?
There are three types of heat transfer, one is conduction or heat transfer through solids, convection, which is heat transfer through liquids and the last is radiation which is heat transfer through gas medium
What do conduction and convection have in common?
They're both modes of heat transfer via material media.
What is a radiator used for?
To transfer heat.
Why are beakers and flasks not used for heating solids?
the heat may not be distributed uniformly if solids are heated in beakers or flasks
What method of heat transfer is used when cooking a baked potato in the microwave?
When heat is transferred by microwaves, that is called radiant heat transfer.
What heat transfer is being used when a heat lamp is heating a box?
conduction
What heat transfer is used in boiling?
conduction and radiation
What type of heat transfer occurs between a pan and a hot stove burner the pan is sitting on?
The predominant heat transfer mechanism used to transfer heat from the pan to the stove burner is radiation.
