Question

determine which type of heat transfer occurs at each location.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze location A

Heat transfer in the handle is through direct contact of particles. This is conduction as heat moves through the solid material of the handle.

Step2: Analyze location B

In the liquid, warmer parts rise and cooler parts sink due to density differences. This is convection which occurs in fluids (liquids and gases).

Step3: Analyze location C

The heating element emits heat in the form of electromagnetic waves to the pot. This is radiation which can travel through a vacuum and does not require a medium.

Answer:

A. conduction
B. convection
C. radiation
