Correct answers:
- Hot air goes up from the hot drink. (convection: warm air rises)
- Heat waves go out from the warm cup. (thermal radiation: infrared emitted outward)
- Heat goes from the cup to your hand. (conduction: heat flows from hotter object to cooler one)

Notes: heat flows from hot to cold (not the other way), and "cold" is not a substance that flows.
