Primarily by unequal heating of fluids. Example: movement of air currents from areas of warmer temperatures to areas of cooler temperatures. Also the effect is one of the cause of water currents.

How can conduction be helpful?

Conduction can cause a spark which can light a light bulb. Conduction can be used to heat up metals.


Does conduction produce heat?

no, conduction describes how the heat is transported not how it is generated. With conduction, a heat source is still needed.


What test compares bone conduction and air conduction of sound using a turning fork?

The Rinne test compares bone conduction and air conduction of sound using a tuning fork. The tuning fork is initially placed on the mastoid bone behind the ear to assess bone conduction, then placed near the ear canal to assess air conduction. A normal result is when air conduction is greater than bone conduction.
