- Q1What are the three types of heat transfer?Radiation, transmission, concaveConduction, convection and radiationConvection, induction, gasGas, solid, liquid60s
- Q2In heat transfer, conduction is defined as?transfer of heat in a liquid or gas due to less dense, warmer matter rising and denser, cooler matter fallingHeat is transferred through the firemovement of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves, which can travel through a vacuuma method of heat transfer in which heat is passed by vibration of particles60s
- Q3In heat transfer, convection is described as?transfer of heat in a liquid or gas due to less dense, warmer matter rising and denser, cooler matter fallingmovement of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves, which can travel through a vacuuma method of heat transfer in which heat is passed by vibration of particlesa way of cooking in an oven that produces delicious food30s
- Q4In heat transfer, radiation is defined as?transfer of heat in a liquid or gas due to less dense, warmer matter rising and denser, cooler matter fallinga method of heat transfer in which heat is passed by vibration of particlessomething that occurs after a nuclear bomb is detonatedmovement of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves, which can travel through a vacuum30s
- Q5What are three ways of measuring temperature?Fahrenheit, Centigrade, CaloriesAlvin, Simon, TheodoreFahrenheit, Celsius, KelvinMetres, Celsius, Centimetres30s
- Q6What are the two types of waves?Longitudinal and tractorTransverse and longitudinalTransverse and latitudeOcean and tidal30s
- Q7How is wavelength measured in a longitudinal wave?By a measuring tapeHeight of highest peakDistance between peaks and troughsDistance from where they are made60s
- Q8How is wavelength measured in a transverse wave?Distance between peaksDistance between soundsA tape recorderDistance between compression and rarefaction60s
- Q9How do sounds travel through the airThe air is compressed then there is a period of rest or rarefaction then the air is compressed again60s
