Thermal Energy:

heat; the energy
in matter due to
the motion of its
particles

Heat can move from one place to another by several methods.

​Use the pictures to come up with your own definition or explanation of radiation, convection, and conduction. Hint: look at the heat source in relation to the object that's being heated.

Conduction:

​the tansfer of heat through a substance.

Conduction occurs within one object or between objects that are touching each other.

​You notice your friend heating peppers on the stove. All of a sudden they drop the spoon and grab their hand. Why did they do that? How would you solve the problem?

​Convection

the transfer of heat due to the way molecules move. Usually, convection occurs in a circular pattern.

Radiation: a type of heat wave generated by an energy source. It also refers to the way waves move though space.

prevents thermal energy from traveling. Insulators, such as Styrofoam, can keep thermal energy from entering or escaping a system

insulators

allows thermal energy to move relatively easily. Conductors, such as metals, allow heat to flow into and out of systems

​conductor

Heat always travels from an area of high temperature to an area of lower temperature. Within a system, heat will spread out until all areas of the system have the same temperature. This even temperature is called equilibrium because the temperature is equal throughout.
