The type of thermal energy transfer that takes place in fluids is mostly?
Mode of energy transfer in fluids is convection.
A kite rises high above a hot sandy beach is an example of what kind of heat transfer?
thermal-type: radiation source: http://quizlet.com/2000966/heat-thermal-energy-states-of-matter-flash-cards/
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 are the uses of convection?
It means the transfer of thermal energy by the circulation movement of a liquid or gas.
What is the scientist who first proposed that thermal convection in the mantle causes continental drift?
Arthur Holmes
What materials does thermal transfer by convection take place in?
Convection
What are convection currents are and what they do?
thermal energy
What happen as thermal energy is transferred from the core to the mantle?
CONVECTION CURRENT is the answer.
Density changes are responsible for which methods of thermal energy transfer?
Convection.
What is the difference between conduction convection and thermal energy?
Conduction and convection are two ways in which thermal energy is transferred, the third way is by radiation.
What are convection currents and what do they transfer?
thermal energy
Movement of thermal energy is called?
convection
What is the process of transferring thermal energy?
convection
What is more likely to occur in the water thermal energy transfer by conduction or convection?
Convection
How heat travels through convection?
Movement of Thermal energy is by the use of convection currents.
How do you use convection current In a sentences?
Convection current is a stream of fluid propelled by thermal convection. Convection is mostly around gas and liquid
Is convection an example of hot air rising?
it is thermal convection because convection is the tranfer of energy through a liquid or gas.
