s6 O1 Lesson Heat Foldable

Heat can be transferred between objects through three methods: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction involves the direct transfer of heat between particles in contact. Convection is the transfer of heat by the circulation of liquids and gases. Radiation involves the emission and absorption of electromagnetic waves to transfer heat over distances. Examples are provided to illustrate each of the three methods of heat transfer.
