Yes, heat can travel through conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials, convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water, and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.

Can anyone give me a list of about 12 places that heat travels and whether it's by convection conduction or radiation?

1. From the sun to the earth, radiation 2. Heating lamp to you, radiation 3. You touching a hot stove, conduction 4. Heater blowing hot air, convection 5. Why the air heats up during the morning radiation from the ground, which is heated by radiation from the sun. That's all I could think of on the top of my head.


Is barbecuing radiation convection or conduction?

Barbecuing, depending on what specific process it is referring to, could be either radiation, convection, or conduction. Radiation is when energy is released in the form of a photon, so the flames of the barbecue (light energy) are a form of radiation. Conduction is when energy is transferred through contact, or collision, therefore, the things you are cooking on the barbecue, are being heated through conduction with the metal. Convection is when energy travels through energy-containing particles (other than photons), so the steam rising from the coals is convection currents.


What are the three types if heat transfer?

The three most common types of heat transfer are convection, radiation, and conduction. Convection is the movement of heat through a liquid. Radiation is the movement of heat from a distance like the sun warms the earth and a fire warms things that are near. Conduction is the transfer of heat through touch like when you touch a hot pan, stove, etc.


Does an electric grill use conduction convection or radiation?

Depending on the scenario, it could be an example of all three, but the most common transfer of energy through heat associated with a heating iron would be conduction. If this is for school and it is possible to have more than one answer, then it would be conduction and radiation.


What is the opposite of convection?

The opposite of convection is advection. Convection refers to the transfer of heat through the movement of fluid (such as air or water) caused by density differences, while advection is the transfer of properties of a substance by the movement of a different substance, typically involving horizontal movement in the atmosphere or oceans.

conduction, convection and radiation.


What do conduction and convection do that radiation does notwhat does radiation use instead?

Conduction and convection badly needs material medium but radiation does not need a material medium as an essential one. It could traverse even in free space in the form of electromagnetic waves


How does energy transform into conduction convection or radiation?

Conduction, convection and radiation are types of heat (i.e. energy) transference, from an object/area of higher temperature to an object/area of lower temperature Energy doesn't exactly transform into them. Perhaps you could rephrase the question?


How is heat transffered through space?

through thermal radiation, a type of electromagnetic radiation, convection and conduction could not occur because there are barely anything in space

What are non-examples of conduction?

Non-examples of conduction include radiation and convection. Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, such as sunlight warming the Earth. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids, such as boiling water transferring heat through the rising bubbles. Conduction specifically refers to the transfer of heat through direct contact between objects or substances.


An example of conduction convection and radiation working together?

a boiling pot because the stove radiates heat to warm the pot. the pot is touching the stove which is conduction. last when the pot is heated and boiling the steam is a form of convection. conduction could also be ice melting on a hot surface>

What are two ways that energy can be transferred between objects?

The transfer of energy from one object to another varies as the type of energy being transferred. If we consider billiards, we see the kinetic (mechanical) energy of one ball transferred to another by contact. The transfer of thermal energy can be accomplished via conduction, convection or radiation. There is more, but specific answers require specific questions. Additionally, conservation laws apply in all cases.


How do you know that heat travels from the sun to the earth by radiation?

It's the only way heat could reach us. It comes via electromagnetic radiation, discovered theoretically by James Clerk Maxwell. It can't come by conduction or convection because space is empty, there is no air there.
