Which best explains how ice melts in a person’s hand?

• The heat from a person’s hand transfers by radiation to the ice,

  causing it to melt.

• The heat from a person’s hand transfers by conduction to the ice, causing it to melt.

• The cool temperature of the ice transfers by radiation to a person’s hand, cooling it off.

• The cool temperature of the ice transfers by conduction to a person’s hand, cooling it off.

Which best explains how convected heat causes a hot air balloon to stay in the air?

• The heat is falling and replacing cooler air.

• The heat is produced from the rising of air currents.

• The heat is absorbed through the balloon from the sun.

• The heat is rising and circulating, causing the balloon to stay up in the air.

Which best describes heat transfer by radiation?

• a slice of bacon frying in a pan

• a pot on a stove boiling water

• a camp fire warming hands

• a hot air balloon
