QuestionAnswer
The transfer of heat by direct contact between particles is called conduction
The transfer of heat into liquids and gases through currents is called convection
The transfer of heat by infrared waves is called radiation
A metal spoon gets hot in boiling water is an example of conduction
A egg on a frying pan sizzles when it cooks is an example of conduction
An ice cube in a hand begins to melt is an example of conduction
