Question
you have been studying heat transfer in science class. your task today is to make a solar oven to make smores: graham crackers, marshmallows, and melted chocolate. when you have successfully completed your oven, you get to eat the smores with the melted chocolate and soft marshmallows. how is heat energy transferred to achieve this task? a conduction b convection c insulation d radiation
In a solar oven, heat energy from the sun reaches the food inside the oven through electromagnetic waves. This is the process of radiation. Conduction involves heat transfer through direct contact, convection is heat transfer through fluid movement, and insulation is to prevent heat loss, not a way of heat - energy transfer to cook the s'mores.
