Question
this is an example of convection, conduction or radiation? convection conduction radiation
Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). In the image, the heated water (a fluid) is shown moving in a circular pattern (as indicated by the arrows). This movement of the fluid (water) due to temperature differences is characteristic of convection. Conduction involves heat transfer through direct contact of solids, and radiation is heat transfer via electromagnetic waves (like the sun warming the Earth). Since the image depicts fluid movement for heat transfer, it is convection.
