Heat can never flow from a colder object to a hotter object according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Heat naturally flows from a hotter object to a colder object in order to equalize their temperatures.

Can heat ever flow from a colder object to a hotter object, as stated by the principle that heat can never flow from ?

Yes, heat can never flow from a colder object to a hotter object, as stated by the principle that heat can never flow from a lower temperature to a higher temperature.


Heat can never flow from?

Heat can never flow from a colder to a hotter object on its own, as heat naturally flows from the hotter object to the cooler one. This is described by the Second Law of Thermodynamics.


What way can heat never flow?

From cold to hot.


Does heat flow cooler or smaller object?

Heat flow's from cooler objects.


Is heat flow the same between the continental and oceanic crust?

Apparently No, heat flow in oceanic crust is higher than continental crust


Does heat energy flow indefinitely?

No, heat energy does not flow indefinitely. It will continue to flow until a thermal equilibrium is reached where all objects involved reach the same temperature. Once this equilibrium is achieved, there will be no further flow of heat energy.


What is downward heat flow?

negative heat


Heat never of itself flows from a cold to a hot substance?

Heat can flow from cold to hot substances. It's flow depends on the total amount of heat of the substance not on the temperature. It flows from the substance which has more heat to the substance which has less heat stored in it.


What three things make heat flow?

Heat flow is made by conduction, convection or radiation.


How can energy be carried from one place to another by heat flow and by waves?

heat flow and waves


What will cause heat to flow slowly?

Interatomic separation causes heat to flow slowly. As there will be time involved in transferring heat at a gap.


What is steady heat flow?

In most realistic situations heat flow can be said to occur from a region of higher temperature to one of lower temperature. As the region of higher temperature loses heat and the other region gains heat their temperatures become closer and the rate of heat flow diminishes. If, however, it can be contrived to maintain the source of heat at a constant temperature and the destination of the heat also at a constant temperature, then the heat will flow between the two at a constant rate, called steady heat flow.
