What is Heat?
Heat is a form of energy that can be transferred from one object to another. It is usually measured in Celsius or Fahrenheit. Heat can be transferred in three ways:
- Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between two objects. For example, when you touch a hot stove, heat from the stove is transferred to your hand through conduction.
- Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). For example, when you boil water, heat from the bottom of the pot is transferred to the water through convection.
- Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. For example, heat from the sun is transferred to the Earth through radiation.
