1.
Multiple Choice
Which type of thermal energy transfer is illustrated in the diagram shown above?
Electromagnetic waves of radiation
Direct transfer of thermal energy by conduction
Heat rising, cooling, and sinking by convection
All three types of thermal transfer are illustrated
2.
Multiple Choice
A student is drinking a cup of hot chocolate as they sit by a campfire on a chilly evening. They know that the cup of hot chocolate transfers thermal energy to the surrounding air. The heated air over their cup of hot chocolate expands and rises and is replaced by cooler, denser air. This method of energy transfer is —
convection
condensation
conduction
radiation
3.
Multiple Choice
A student is standing with their back facing a campfire. The student notices that their back is much warmer than their chest. They know that thermal energy is being transferred from the fire and that this method of energy transfer can happen even if no air is present. This method of energy transfer is —
convection
condensation
conduction
radiation

A
B
C
D
5.
Multiple Choice
How does transfer of thermal energy by radiation differ from convection and conduction?
Convection and conduction transfer thermal energy through solids, liquids, or gases.
Radiation can transfer thermal energy through space in addition to solids, liquids, or gases
Radiation requires direct contact between particles for thermal energy transfer.
Convection and conduction use currents to transfer thermal energy in solids, liquids, or gases.
