How is conduction convection and radiation alike?

Answer 1

Conduction, Convection, and radiation are all ways that heat can be transferred between 2 objects. Conduction is transfer by direct contact like when you cook something on the stove. Convection occurs when heat is transferred by movement like in the Earth's mantle. Radiation occurs when waves are used to transfer heat like sunlight.

Answer 2

The only similarity is that they all have to do with the movement/transfer of heat.

Conduction is the process by which heat transfers between bodies that are in physical contact with each other. Heat is transferred without the movement of individual particles.

Convection is the process by which heat rises and cold descends. The particles of the medium actually move during this process.

Radiation is the process by which heat is transferred between bodies that are not in direct contact with each other by means of electromagnetic waves.

also, conduction and convection are to do with particle movement where as radiation is to do with electromagnetic waves.
They are similar as

---All the three are ways in which heat is transmitted.

Conduction---By direct contact.

Convection---By currents(covection)

Radiation-----Does not require a medium !

Answer 3

Radiation is when the sun's heat travels to earth in electromagnetic waves.

Convection is the transfer of heat through the molecules.

So the only thing they have in common is that they both have energy and make other things warm.

Answer 4

• radiation transports energy completely without contact
• conduction requires direct contact to transport energy
• convection requires mutual contact with a medium that moves to transport energy

Answer 5

3 Similarities between conduction, convection and radiation are given below:

All of the three are involved in thermal energy

They all occur on oven and stove top.

They all involve heat.

Answer 6

Conduction and radiation both have to do with heat. They carry out different processes but they both have something to do with heat.

Answer 7

Convection and radiation are two ways heat travels.

Answer 8

They can be heated by 2 objects

Answer 9

They all transfer heat energy.
