Through which of the following will convection most likely occur? liquids and gases solids and liquids solids solids and gases

The convection can occur most likely in liquids and gases.

Explanation

The process of heat transfer can be classified in three types:

(i) conduction,

(ii) convection and

(iii) radiation.

Mostly we term the mechanism of heat transfer as conduction which occurs in solids.

The densely packed atoms in solids vibrate when heat energy is applied on them and while vibrating the atoms will transfer energy from one atom to another atom on collision. This is the mechanism in conduction.

But in liquids and gases , the probability of collision of vibrating atoms are very less as the atoms are loosely arranged in liquids and gases. So in them convection method is used for the transfer of heat energy.

The heat energy will be carried by the molecules while moving in their path and thus the heat energy will be transferred by convection in liquids and solids.

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
