Answer 4

Conduction is the transfer of heat by intermolecular collisions

Question 5

Define convection

Answer 5

Convection involves the molecules themselves moving from one place to another

Question 6

Which form of heat transfer is most common in oceans, lakes turn over, winds, weather & mountains?

Answer 6

Convection

Question 7

Define radiation heat transfer

Answer 7

molecules can transform heat into electromagnetic waves, so that heat is transferred not by molecules but by the waves themselves
