Answer to Question 1

Energy is being transferred to the water in the aluminum pans through convection and conduction. Convection energy is the transfer of heat through air (gas) or liquid currents (water or liquid fat). When heated, hot gases and liquids become less dense and rise while the cooler, heavier gases and liquids flow downward. Energy is being transferred via conduction as the slow, direct transfer of heat energy between adjacent molecules occurs.

Answer to Question 2

The Pyrex, metal, and Styrofoam cups receive heat from conduction. Conduction is the direct transfer of heat from one substance to another that it is contacting.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
