1
Q
Heat can be transferred by conduction. How could this occur?
A
The objects must be in contact, and they must be different temperatures.
2
Q
When conduction occurs where does it go from?
A
FROM the hotter object (substance). INTO the colder one.
3
Q
If you put an ice block on metal what will happen?
A
The heat will be conducted into the ice block.
4
Q

A
The vibrating particles pass their energy to their neighbouring particles - - thus the heat is conducted.
5

6
