Answer
Brief Explanations:
- Question 8: Heat transfer from a camp - fire to a person standing close is through electromagnetic waves, which is radiation.
- Question 9: When frying an egg on a hot pan, heat is transferred from the pan to the egg through direct contact, which is conduction.
- Question 10: The circular movement of "lava" in a lava lamp is due to density differences caused by heating and cooling, which is convection.
- Question 11: A material that allows heat to move easily is called a conductor.
- Question 12: A material that blocks the movement of heat is an insulator.
- Question 13 - 20: Winter coat, rubber tire, wood block, and plastic jug are insulators as they prevent heat transfer well. Steel nail, copper coin, iron pan, and metal spoon are conductors as they allow heat to pass through easily.
