Convection and Conduction
Convection and Conduction are both types of heat transfer where energy is passed from hot to cold. When something passes through heat it will move faster, and as they move faster and faster they become more hotter. We can do this by Conduction energy to transfer through contact. For 2 examples of good conductors there would be like stove tops and pans because the stove top gets the heat from electricity and transfers the heat to the pan and to the food. And for Thermal conductor it can pass on heat to other objects. for convection they generate heat without contact and for and example like heaters, they generate heat with using contact and as it does that the hot stuff rises and the cold stuff sink. Today we did a experiment by using a tea bag to allow it to rise and during the experiment We lit the tea bag to let it rise up. While it rose up we noticed it became less dense when it rose up and more dense when it sunk down the reason behind this is that when it sunk down it become for compacted and when it went up it became faster and faster and transferd the energy to each other.
