Answer to Question 1

1. Conduction  heat transfer by direct contact form molecule to molecule. When a metal rod is heated on one end heat travels from that end to the cooler end through the rod.

2. Convection  heat transfer by circulating a fluid to distribute the heat. The air circulating inside older refrigerators is an example of natural convection.

3. Radiation- heat transfer by waves of electromagnetic radiation. Being heated by a fire is an example of radiant heat.

Answer to Question 2

The greater the temperature difference the faster the heat transfer.
