AB
3 types of heat transferradiation, conduction, and convection
heat transferthe movement of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object
radiationthe transfer of energy through empty space
an example of radiationthe heat you feel around an open fire or when youput your hands very close together
conductionheat transfer by direct contact of particles of matter
an example of conductionthe hot spoon you pick up from boiling soup or when you touch your hands together
convectionheat transfer by the movement of a heated fluid from an area of higher density to an area of lower density
an example of convectionthe soup in a pot heating up or like the heat you can feel rising from your head
densitymeasurement of how much mass there is in a volume of a substance
an example of densitycold water sinks, pushing warm water upwards
convection currentsthe flow that transfers heat within a fluid
fluid movementmovement of a gas or liquid
