Which of the following is the best example of conduction?
A
A light bulb warming a lampshade
B
An egg cooking in a frying pan
C
Water boiling in a pot
D
Gases circulating in the atmosphere
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The best example of thermal conduction is an egg cooking in a frying pan.

Detailed explanation-2: -conduction: Egg cooking in a hot pan. What is happening? When a raw egg begins to fry as it hits a heated frying pan, energy from the pan moves to the egg and cooks it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Conduction is the process of heat being transferred between objects through direct contact, and it’s the most common type of heat transfer. For example, in cooking the burners on stoves will conduct heat energy to the bottom of a pan sitting on top of it. From there, the pan conducts heat to its contents.

Detailed explanation-4: -As the outer parts of the egg heat up, that heat is transferred inward, so that it is the hotter parts of the egg that end up cooking the cooler, interior parts of itself. The transfer of heat from one part of an object to another part of the same object is also considered conduction.

Detailed explanation-5: -A common example of conduction is the process of heating a pan on a stove. The heat from the burner transfers directly to the surface of the pan.
