Question

If you hold the end of an iron rod over a fire, your hand will become warm because of the heat transferred from the fire to the rod to your hand. This type of heat transfer is known as:

Answer 1

Conduction

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: conduction heat transfer

Step-by-step explanation:

Heat transfer is the transfer of heat from one point to another as a result of temperature gradient between the two points. Heat can be transferred by three means; conduction (solids) , convection (fluids), radiation (electromagnetic radiation).

In the case above, the type of heat transfer is conduction because the heat travels through a solid material (iron) to the hand which are in contact with each other.
