The energy transport process in which energy is transported through the collisions of electrons with one another is
A)Conduction
B)Convection
C)Radiation
D)Radial drift

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conduction is the process of energy transfer between objects through direct contact. In metals and other conductive materials, energy can also be transported through the collisions of free electrons with the fixed atoms and ions in the material. This is known as electron or thermal conduction. Therefore, the correct option is A) Conduction. Option B) Convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid such as air or water. Option C) Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. Option D) Radial drift is not related to energy transport.
