What does convection work best in?
200
Through empty space.
How does radiation travel?
200
Longer waves
What waves have less energy?
300
The transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves.
What is Radiation?
300
Conduction molecules transfer
Is energy is transferred no matter how many molecules?
300
Space between molecules contracts and matter becomes more dense.
What happens when matter gets colder?
300
Not to far because it can be blocked pretty easily. (Hint: by matter)
How far does radiation usually travel?
300
Radio waves
What types of waves power cell phones and TV?
400
An electric and magnetic field intensity that has different energy levels depending on the distance of the waves.
What is Electromagnetic waves?
400
Energy can easily pass through it.
What is Conductor?
400
It flows up to the top and then gets colder so it comes back down.
