Question 25 of 25 What does it mean for heat to be transferred by thermal conduction?
A. Energy is transferred when one molecule collides with another.
B. Energy is transferred when molecules absorb electromagnetic
waves.
C. Energy is transferred through moving currents of warmer air or
liquid.
D. Energy is transferred through converting bond energy to kinetic
energy

Energy is transferred when one molecule collides with another.

Explanation:

There are 3 processes of heat transfer. They are as follows:

Conduction is the process of transfer of energy through collisions between neighboring atoms or molecules. When two bodies are in direct contact with each other, the process of conduction occurs.

Hence, the correct option is (A) "Energy is transferred when one molecule collides with another".

hurricanes form when warm, moist air from the ocean surface quickly rises into the atmosphere and forms storm clouds and rain. when the clouds are formed, heat is released which warms the cool air in the upper regions of the atmosphere so that the cycle can continue. which two phases of the water cycle are repeated in this process?
