Question

which is a form of heat transfer that is reduced by using a pot holder when taking a hot dish out of an oven? absorption conduction convection radiation

Explanation:

Pot holders are poor heat conductors. They create a barrier between the hot dish (high-temperature solid) and the hand, reducing direct heat transfer through physical contact, which is conduction. Absorption is not a primary heat transfer mechanism here; convection involves fluid movement, and radiation is heat transfer via electromagnetic waves, which a pot holder does not significantly reduce in this scenario.

Answer:

B. conduction
