3 Types of Heat transfer
Radiation- transfer of heat through empty space
Conduction- transfer of heat by direct contact
Convection- transfer of heat involving the movement of fluids-liquids and gases
3
Multiple Choice
The transfer of heat by direct contact is ...
radiation
conduction
convection
4
Multiple Choice

radiation
conduction
convection
5
Multiple Choice
The transfer of heat involving the movement of fluids-liquids and gases is ...
radiation
conduction
convection
6
Asthenosphere
Heat from Earth’s core and mantle cause hot columns of mantle material to rise
Hot material spreads and forces the cooler material to sink
7
Multiple Choice
What layer is the asthenosphere in?
crust
mantle
outer core
inner core
8
Density
A measure of how much mass there is in a volume of a substance.
9
Quick review of Mass and Volume
Volume- amount of space something takes up
Mass- amount of matter in an object
10
Therefore...
Mass- how heavy/full something is
Volume- how much space it takes up
11
Multiple Choice
What is density???
the amount of mass in an object
the amount of volume it takes up
the amount of mass in a given volume
