Brief Explanations
- Thermal energy is the energy of moving or vibrating atoms. Option A is correct as it describes this concept.
- Heat is the transfer of thermal energy. So option B is right.
- Heat naturally flows from hot to cold regions according to the second - law of thermodynamics. Option A is correct.
- The three main types of heat transfer are radiation, conduction, and convection. Option C is correct.
- Boiling water moving in a circular motion is a classic example of convection currents. Option C is correct.
- The sun heating the sand is an example of heat transfer by radiation as it occurs through electromagnetic waves. Option A is correct.
- Burning your hand by touching a hot pot is conduction as heat is transferred through direct contact. Option B is correct.
