heat Flashcards
1
Q
what is conduction
A
vibrating particles transfer energy to neighboring particles
2
Q
energy transferred by heating
A
energy transferred by heating to thermal store of object
particles gain more energy and vibrate more and collide more
collisions cause transfer = conduction
3
Q
which is a good conductor
A
solid metals
4
Q
what is a conductor
A
material allowing thermal to be transmitted easily
5
Q
what is a insulator
A
material which does not allow easy flow of energy
6
Q
what is convection
A
energetic fluid particles move away from hot to cold regions
7
Q
convection
A
happens in fluids
energy transferred by heating to thermal store
energy shared across kinetic energy store
