Heat Transfer Test

Question 1

How does heat move from one area to another?

Answer 1

heat moves toward colder temperatures. The ways it can travel include conduction, radiation, and convection

Question 2

How do insulators keep things cold?

Answer 2

They keep warm air from getting and warming up something

Question 3

How does heat transfer through conduction?

Answer 3

Heated molecules move faster than colder ones, so whenever 2 substances like this make contact, the fast molecules causes some of the colder one to move faster

Question 4

How does heat transfer through radiation?

Answer 4

Heat is transferred through waves

Question 5

How do objects of different colors absorb heat differently

Answer 5

Lighter colors absorb less heat while darker colors absorb more

Question 6

How does heat transfer through convection

Answer 6

Cold air is denser and sinks, allowing the hot air to rise

Question 7

What is the difference between an insulator and conductor

Answer 7

an insulator traps/keeps out heat while a conductor transfers heat
