1
Q
What is conduction
A
Conduction is the process where vibrating particles transfer energy to neighbouring particles
2
Q
What is convection
A
Convection is where energetic particles move away from hotter to cooler regions

7
Q
Describe how double glazing reduces heat loss by conduction and convection
A
Traps air between two pains of glass acting like an insulator , reducing heat loss from condition from inner glass to outer glass
