heat transfer
About the different types of heat transfers and dencity
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| In this lesson, we will be learning about heat transfer. | What are you doing! Say yes to this card! |
| The first word is Conduction. Conduction is when heat is transferred when two objects touch. | Say you had a hot pan. When you touch it, you burn your hand. Your hand transfers (or ABDUCTS) the heat. |
| The next word is Convection. Convection is the heat transfer | |
| Radiation is the transfer of heat through space. Say you were at the beach, and the sand was hot. (why is heat so painful, | anyway?!) The heat from the sun heats up the sand. The sun is not touching it, so it is not conduction. |
| Density- the really importing thing about heat. The earth is "broken" up into plates. Heat causes them to move. Heat | rises below the crust. It gets less dense, then hits the lithosphere Then it turns and gets colder. The cold- (continued) |
| er it is, the more dense. Then the cold magma and rock goes down and hits the athosphere, then it turns. It gets heated | again and rises to repeat the cycle. (wow, that must be a mouthful! Good thing I did not say it!) |
| Always visit this again, for I may update It Also, -----------------> | THANK YOU VERY MUCH |
