Energy and Heat transfer

Question 1

Law of Conservation of energy

Answer 1

Energy cannot be created or destroyed just transferred (under normal conditions)

Question 2

Heat

Answer 2

Thermal energy that flows due to a difference in temperature. Heat flows from hot to cold.

Question 3

Heat transfer

Answer 3

A method by which heat flows ( conduction convection radiation)

Question 4

conduction

Answer 4

Heat transfer within or between solid objects.

Question 5

convection

Answer 5

Heat transfer into or out of fluids.

Question 6

radiation

Answer 6

heat transfer due to packets of energy called photons that can travel through many substances, even empty space.

Question 7

insulator

Answer 7

A material through which energy ( electrical, thermal or sound) cannot be easily transferred.

Question 8
