KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -Conduction is one of the three main ways that heat energy moves from place to place. The other two ways heat moves around are radiation and convection. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through collisions between neighboring atoms or molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -Conduction is the transfer of energy from one molecule to another by direct contact.

Detailed explanation-3: -Direct-contact heat transfer involves the exchange of heat between two fluids by bringing them into intimate contact with each other. While one of the fluids involved is the continuous phase or the ‘quiescent phase’, the other, which is intimately mixed with the former, is called as the ‘dispersed phase’.

Detailed explanation-4: -While conduction is the transfer of heat energy by direct contact, convection is the movement of heat by actual motion of matter; radiation is the transfer of energy with the help of electromagnetic waves.

Detailed explanation-5: -Convection is another way that heat can be transferred. Convection is motion in a gas or liquid that is caused by temperature differences. This motion transfers heat throughout the gas and liquid. The molecules in liquids and gases are farther apart and have more room to move around than in solids.
