Heat and Heat Transfer Quiz

What is temperature?

• The flow of energy from warmer places to cooler places due to difference in temperature.

• The average kinetic energy of the particles of an object or substance.

• The transfer of heat through empty space by invisible electromagnetic rays.

• The transfer of heat in a fluid caused when hotter fluids rise and cooler fluids sink.

What is conduction?

• The flow of energy from warmer places to cooler places due to difference in temperature.

• The average kinetic energy of the particles of an object or substance.

• The transfer of heat through empty space by invisible electromagnetic rays.

What are conductors and insulators?

• Materials that allow heat energy to move through them efficiently.

• Materials that don't allow heat energy to pass through them well.

• Materials that allow heat energy to move through them efficiently and don't allow heat energy to pass through them well.

• Materials that neither allow heat energy to move through them efficiently nor allow heat energy to pass through them well.
