Conduction,Convection,Radiation Flashcards
1
Q
Conduction
A
Conduction is the flow of thermal energy in a solid threw vibrating particles transferring energy to each other.
2
Q
Convection
A
Convection is the flow of thermal energy in a fluid. This happens when particles with a lot of heat energy take the place of particles with less heat energy.
3
Q
