Question

Convection is a type of heat transfer that occurs within fluids (liquids or gases),creating a cycle where energy transfer occurs between hot and cold particles. ______ air rises, cools, and then sinks. This creates a current in which there is consistent circulation of ______ air moving upward and _____ air moving downward. (Options: Warmer, cooler)

Answer 1

Convection is a type of heat transfer that occurs within fluids (liquids or gases), creating a cycle where energy transfer occurs between hot and cold particles. **Warmer** air rises, cools, and then sinks. This creates a current in which there is consistent circulation of **cooler** air moving upward and **warmer** air moving downward.
