Transfer of Energy Review

Olivia and Benjamin are observing how a pot of water heats up on the stove. What is the definition of CONVECTION?

• When heat transfers through waves.

• Heat traveling from the sun

• When heat transfers from objects that are touching.

• When hot liquid/air rises and cold liquid/air sinks due to a change in density.

Abigail is eating an ice cream cone and it melts in her hand. Which statement about heat transfer is correct?

• Cold is transferred from the ice cream into her hand. As the cold moves, her hand feels colder.

• Heat is transferred from the ice cream into her hand. As thermal energy moves from the ice cream into her hand, her hand feels colder.

• Heat is transferred from her hand into the ice cream. As thermal energy moves from her warm hand into the cold ice cream, her hand loses thermal energy and feels colder.
