Example:
Conduction - When you touch a metal spoon that has been sitting in a hot pot of soup, the thermal energy from the spoon is transferred to your hand through conduction.
Convection - When you boil water on the stove, the hot water near the bottom rises while the cooler water near the top sinks, creating a convection current that helps to heat the water evenly.
Heat - Sitting by a campfire and feeling the warmth radiating from the flames is an example of heat transfer.
Radiation - Feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin is an example of thermal energy being transferred through radiation.
Thermal energy - When you grab a warm cup of coffee, the thermal energy from the coffee is transferred to your hands, making them warm.
give me an example for all of them
conduction – the transfer of thermal energy when particles come in contact
convection – the transfer of thermal energy by moving particles in a fluid
heat – the transfer of thermal energy
radiation – the transfer of energy by waves that does not need a medium
thermal energy – the energy of the motion of particles in a substance at given temperature
