Conduction explained in an easy to understand way.
Conduction
The transfer of heat energy between two objects through direct contact. Conduction is when heat moves through touch, like a spoon getting hot in a cup of tea.
Convection explained in an easy to understand way.
Convection
The transfer of heat energy from a warmer area to a cooler area in a liquid or gas. Convection. Convection is the process where warm liquid or gas rises and cooler liquid or gas sinks, creating a cycle that transfers heat.
