ReplyDeleteCool!
Delete...how do you know?
My stove is conduction because it physically has to touch the surface of the stove to heat up.
ReplyDeleteA flat iron is conduction because the two flat plates of metal in the flat iron heat up and the heat transfers from the flat iron to your hair.
ReplyDeleteThe fire in the fireplace is radiation because it is radiant and it gives off heat.
ReplyDeleteThe toaster oven is conduction because the steel is transfered to the pan.
ReplyDeleteMy oven uses conduction energy because it has to make contact to transfer energy.
ReplyDeleteAwesome examples, guys! Keep em coming - I've heard from nearly everyone now!

ReplyDeleteMy cook top uses conduction energy because the electric current through the coil transfers heat to the sauce pan or pot.
