- The movement of energy from one place to another is called energy transfer. Heat transfer mainly takes place due to temperature differences.
- There are three modes of Heat transfer.
1.Conduction: The mode of heat transfer in solids where heat transfer takes place without the movement of medium particles is called conduction.
For example: By heating one end of a metal rod we can feel hotness at another end.
2.Convection: The mode of heat transfer in fluids where heat transfer takes place due to the movement of particles of the medium is called convection.
For example: Heating of water in a pot
3. Radiation: The mode of heat transfer where heat is transferred from one place to another without affecting the medium particles is called radiation.
For example: When we place our hand nearby the burning gas stove then we can feel the hotness. This is due to radiation.
EXPLANATION:
- From above it is clear that the process of the transfer of heat from one place to another place without heating the intervening medium is called radiation.
- It is possible to even in vacuum e.g. the heat from the sun reaches the earth through radiation. Therefore option 3 is correct.
