Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conduction is the transfer of heat from one particle to another by contact. In this case, food particles in a can do not move, so the transfer of heat can only occur through conduction (i.e., direct contact). Radiation involves transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, whereas convection involves transfer of heat through movement of hot particles (e.g., in a fluid). Emission refers to the release of energy in the form of light or heat.
