What method is heat transferred through a metal skewer?
Conduction is the way in which heat travels through solids
What is the similarties between conduction and convection?
If you are talking about heat transfer, these are both methods. Conduction is when something is touching a heat source, and so it starts to heat up. Convection is when heat travels upwards because it is lighter than cool air. I guess the similarity is they are both methods of heat transfer.
Fast particles colliding with slower particles is this type of heat transfer?
radiation air travels this way false or true?
When heat travels by conduction or convention it has to travel?
Heat conduction (or thermal conduction) is the transfer of internal energy by microscopic diffusion and collisions of particles or quasi-particles within a body due to a temperature gradient.Convective heat transfer, often referred to simply as convection, is the transfer of heat from one place to another by the movement of fluids. Convection is usually the dominant form of heat transfer in liquids and gases. Although often discussed as a distinct method of heat transfer, convective heat transfer involves the combined processes of conduction (heat diffusion) and advection (heat transfer by bulk fluid flow).So heat must travel by diffusion, movement of fluids, or both; concerning conduction and convection.
Does radiation need matter to transfer heat?
No. Heat radiation is electromagnetic radiation, like radio or light. Notice that we receive vast amounts of heat from the sun yet that heat travels mainly through empty space.
What method of heat transfer travels as a wave?
convection
Name the type of heat transfer in which heat travels by direct contact?
conduction
Name the type of heat transfer in which heat travels by the movement of fluids?
Convection.
Is the direct transfer of heat through a substance?
heat travels to any colder object
What is the fastest heat transfer?
It depends on the medium of heat transfer. For solids, it is conduction heat transfer. For liquids and gases, it is convection heat transfer. for vacuum (no medium), it is radiation heat transfer.
How does heat travels if there is air?
Heat travels through water and air primarily through conduction and convection. Radiation is also a significant means of heat transfer through air, but less so through water.
What method is heat transferred through a metal skewer?
Conduction is the way in which heat travels through solids
When heat travels in a vacuum to heat another source this is known as?
Radiative heat transfer, or simply: radiation. As opposed to conduction and convection.
What method of heat transfer makes possible for the sun to heat earth?
radiation, this is the only one that travels in a vacuum
What are the types of heat transfers?
Conduction: Transfer of heat in solids Convection: Transfer of heat in liquid and gases (convection currents are the motion of which the heat travels in, see hot air balloon's) Radiation: Transfer of heat through vacuum (space i.e no particles)
What is the transfer of heat by contact called?
Conduction.
What does convection conduction and radiation have in common?
They are all a way of transfering energy - usually heat.
