What energy is transmitted by direct contact or touch?

Answer 1

We apply the term conduction to the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact. The other two mechanisms that transfer thermal energy are radiation and convection.

Answer 2

The energy transmitted by direct contact or touch is known as conduction. Conduction is the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference in temperature or electrical potential between two regions. In the case of heat conduction, molecules in the warmer region transfer kinetic energy to neighboring molecules in the cooler region through direct contact, leading to a transfer of heat energy.

Answer 3

Human beings are able to transmit their heat (thermal energy) by direct touch or contact. We also find that static electricity (electromagnetic energy) can be transmitted between individuals as well. It should be noted that pushing on someone transfers motion (mechanical energy) to that person.

Answer 4

Thermal energy is transmitted by direct contact or touch. When two objects at different temperatures come into contact, heat flows from the warmer object to the cooler object until they reach thermal equilibrium.

Answer 5

The transfer of heat energy by direct contact is called conduction.

The transfer of mechanical energy by direct contact is called work.

Answer 6

Conduction. Convection is through some fluid medium and radiation is through a vacuum.

Answer 7

A collision is the transfer of energy through direct contact. Though something hot sitting besides something cold is also transferring energy through direct contact.

Answer 8

conduction

Answer 9

CONDUCTION!
