Question
9 when you heat a pot on a stove, the handle gets warm. which type of heat transfer is responsible? a conduction b radiation c convection d all of the above
Heat transfer via conduction occurs when heat moves through a solid (or between solids in contact) by direct molecular interaction. When a pot is heated on a stove, the heat from the stove is transferred to the pot's body, and then through the solid handle via conduction. Radiation involves heat transfer via electromagnetic waves (no medium needed), and convection involves heat transfer via fluid (liquid/gas) movement. Since the handle is a solid and heat moves through it directly, conduction is responsible.
