Conduction between two object can only occur when -
a) one object is more dense
b) both object are in physical contact with each other
c) one object is made of metal.
d)

One example of conduction is when -
a) the handle of a pot on a fire gets hot
b) warm water rises in a circular motion while being heated
c) heat moves from a fire to the bottom of a pot
d)

The transfer of energy by electromagnetic rays which may occur in empty space
a) radiation
b) convection
c) conduction
d)

A cyclical motion occurs because the density of a fluid is related to its temperature, causing sinking and rising of the fluid, creating a circular pattern.
a) conduction currents
b) electrical currents
c) convection currents
d)

The energy transferred between two objects of different temperatures
a) cold
b) heat
c) radiation
d)

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, energy just changes form.
a) sir isaac newton's law
b) the law of conservation of energy
c) the law of motion
d)

The transfer of thermal energy from one place to another by the movement of fluids, which occurs on a large scale in atmospheric gases oceans and Earth's mantle
a) radiation
b) conduction
c) convection
d)

Regarding thermal energy, the faster the tiny particles of matter move, the colder the the matter becomes
a) True

c)
d)

The transfer of thermal energy that occurs in solids, liquids and gases when two substances of different temperature touch.
a) radiation
b) conduction
c) convection
d)

The total kinetic energy of tiny particles that make up matter is -
a) solar energy
b) mechanical energy
c) thermal energy
d)

The average kinetic energy of all the particles in a material, measured by a thermometer in degrees.
a) temperature
