What is radiation?

the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles.

100

Can radiation only come from the sun?

No

100

How is heat transferred in solids?

Conduction

100

What does convection occur most easily in?


liquids and gases

100

Finish this statement: 'RAISE THE _________!"

RAISE THE BAR!

200

What is convection?

the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder.

200

when the sun heat waves hit you what type of energy is it?

Radiation

200

whats the difference between convection and conduction?

In conduction, heat transfer occurs between objects by direct contact. In convection, the heat transfer takes within the fluid.

200

What is needed for convection to happen?

particles with a lot of heat energy in a liquid or gas move and take the place of particles with less heat energy.

200

What does this abbreviation stand for?

PLDSFI

Paul Laurence Dunbar School for Innovation 

300

What is conduction?

the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature.
300

How does radiation work?

Radiation works by making small breaks in the DNA inside cells.

300

What is the effect of temperature on thermal conductivity of a material?

It increases with increase in temperature
300

How does density affect convection?

Convection is heat transfer due to a density differential within a fluid.

What is Abigail's Favorite song artist?

Girl In Red

400

What does convection occur most easily in?

their particles are at a low kinetic energy. their particles are spaced far enough that they can move easily.



400

Do humans give off radiation?

Yes, all objects, including human bodies give off  radiation.

400

The transfer of thermal energy between the two systems is known as?

heat transfer(Conduction)

400

Is convection heat transferred?

Convection is a very efficient way of heat transfer

500

Does convection always work more quickly than conduction in water and air?

In fluids like water and air convection is more efficient then conduction.

500

How Long Can radiation last?

2 to 10 weeks

500

How does conduction affect the natural environment?

The sun's radiation strikes the ground, thus warming the rocks. As the rock's temperature rises due to conduction.
500

Which layer of Earth goes through convection?

The Mantle
