Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three modes of heat transfer.

1. Conduction: It is the mode of heat transfer when the object is in contact with hot body and gradually the heat transfer from the hot end to the cold end.

2. Convection: It is the mode of heat transfer in which the molecules gets heated and moves up and the cold molecules comes down and the process continues till the entire liquid or gas is at same temperature.

3. Radiation: It is the process of heat transfer in which the heat is transferred in the form of heat waves.

(a) When the cook pot is placed on flame, it is the example of conduction.

(b) When the liquid is placed on the flame in a container, the liquid gets heated by the mode of convection.

(c) We feel heat as we stand near the flame so it is the example of radiation.

(d) because the heat is trapped so it becomes hot in lesser time.
