Question

What method of thermal energy is used when ice is melting? Conduction, convection, our radiation?

Answer 1

Answer:

Radiation is the method of transfer of energy for the melting of ice.

Explanation:

• Conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one part of matter to other part by atomic collision.
• While convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of liquid or hot air.
• And radiation is the way of absorbing or transmitting energy.
• Hence in ice melting, thermal energy is absorbed so the correct answer is option C which is radiation.
