According to Wikipedia, convection is a heat transfer proces that requires the presence of something to transfer that heat, but it is a process that happens in fluids. Conduction is transfer of heat from a hot object to a less hot object, in this case from a hot curling iron to your hair. Radiation heat transfer is by its nature different from convection in that it does NOT require a medium.
Since we are not talking about fluids or about heat transfer without the help of an medium, the process you are looking for is conduction

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 type of Heat transfer does a iron use?
conduction
What is the difference between Conduction convection and radiation?
The transfer of heat by conduction requires a physical medium through which the heat travels. Convection involves transfer by the movement of air, and radiation requires neither a physical conductor, nor movement of a medium. For example, if you place an iron poker in the fire, eventually the end you are holding will get hot...this is conduction. When you turn on your car heater fan, the car eventually warms up through the movement of warm air...this is convection. When you stand in the sun, with 93 million miles of basically nothing between you and it, and still you get a sunburn, this is radiation.
Flossy Fletcher was curling her hair when she dropped the curling iron. The curling iron fell 1.651m to the floor. a. How fast was the iron traveling when it hit the floor?
Answer: Use the formulah = 1/2gt2where t = timeh = heightg = gravitational accelerationsolving for tt = sqrt 2h/g= sqrt ( (2)(1.651m)/9.8m/s2 )= 0.580secSolving how fast the curling iron travelV = h/t= 1.651m/0.580sec= 2.84m/s - ans.
How does heat travel through gas?
Either Convection(hot air rises - the same way you feel the heat when you hold your hand a few inches above an electric iron/heater or even a frying pan that's hot) or Radiation(the way you feel warm or hot under sunlight) or Both i.e. radiation+convection.
Is an iron convection radiation or conduction?
convection
Is a iron convection conduction or radiation?
A clothes iron uses conduction.
Is a Iron conduction convection radiation?
A clothes iron uses conduction.
Is heat from a curling iron conduction?
yes
Is iron convection or conduction?
Iron is a good thermal and electrical conductor.
Where does conduction radiation and convection occure?
Condction-- In the Iron Box or Kettle from flame to Pot bottom Convection-- Airconditioning the room .Cooling takes place by movement of the cooler particles. Radiation-- From Sun transfer of heat. Or from a Bonfire in cols places.

What type of Heat transfer does a iron use?
conduction
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 is a waffle iron type of heat transfer?
It is conduction, heat transfer where 2 objects touch, because the waffle iron and the waffle are touching. (and it can't be radiation or convection.)
Is a curling iron curling a persons hair a convection?
Yes it is because when the microns, proteins, and the carbon fiber fuse together, the energy released heats your hair causing it to change shape.
Is silver in a curling iron?
No. A curling iron does NOT have silver in it!!.. There are silver curling irons but there are no curling irons with silver in them!
