Heat Radiation
Cards in this deck (10)
- 1How can heat energy be transferred?Conduction
Convection
Radiation - 2How does heat radiation transfer heat energy?By Infrared Radiation (IR)
- 3How do conduction and convection transfer energy?Through particle movement
- 4In which state of matter is conduction most prominent?Solids
- 5In which state of matter is Convection most prominent?Liquids and Gases
- 6What can emit IRSolids, liquids and gases
- 7The bigger the temperature difference...... the faster the energy is transferred by heating
- 8State the types of materials that adsorb IR more efficiently.Dark, matt surfaces
- 9What type of materials emit more radiation?Shiny, light surfaces
- 10Why would solar panels be a dark colour?So they absorb more IR making the system much more efficient
