Metal spoon transferring heat from pot to you.
A. Conduction
B. Convection
C. Radiation
GPT 3.5
A. Conduction
Hot air _____________ and cold air _____________ due to ___________.
GPT 3.5
Hot air rises and cold air sinks due to convection.
are you sure?
GPT 3.5
Yes, I am sure. Hot air has lower density compared to cold air, which causes it to rise. This movement of air due to differences in density is known as convection.
Conduction happens when:
*
A. molecules vibrate quickly bump into other molecules, which transfers heat

B. heat is transferred by physical touch

C. free electrons collide with atoms which cause faster vibrations

D. all of the above
GPT 3.5
D. all of the above
