convection
When a fluid is heated, it becomes less dense and tends to rise while cooler fluid sinks to replace it, creating a movement known as convection. This movement helps to transfer heat throughout the fluid by circulating hot and cold regions. The process continues as long as there is a temperature difference driving the fluid movement.
False. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy in the form of electromagnetic waves, while the transfer of heat by the movement of a heated fluid is known as convection.
When part of a fluid is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, creating a convection current. As it rises, it displaces cooler, denser fluid, which then descends to replace the rising fluid. This continuous circulation results in a convection current within the fluid.
If the heated fluid is warmer than the fluid around it, it will generally rise due to its lower density. This movement is known as natural convection, where the warmer fluid displaces the cooler fluid and creates circulation in the system.
The circular movement you are describing is called convection. This process occurs when heated fluid rises due to decreased density and is replaced by cooler fluid, creating a continuous circular flow.
Heat transfer by the movement of a heated fluid is called _________?
Heat transfer by the movement of a heated fluid is called _________?
This is called convection. One part of the fluid is heated and when it moves to a region of less energy it gives up some heat.

When a fluid (liquid or gas) is heated, it expands. The heated fluid is therefore less dense than the fluid around it, so it rises.Colder fluid then sinks down to replace it and this sets up a movement of fluid called a CONVECTION CURRENT.
The transfer of heat through the movement of heated fluid under the Earth's surface is called convection. This process plays a key role in the movement of tectonic plates and the generation of geothermal energy.
