When you cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, energy is transferred. Identify the three different ways t
hermal energy is transferred in this situation. Be sure to name the specific places or phenomenon in this system where each of the types of thermal energy transfer is occurring and the direction the energy is being transferred (from what to what).
1) The conduction of the heat from the open flame to the marshmallow is through the direct contact of the flame with the marshmallow, such that the flame the region of the combustion reaction, that produces light and heat touches the marshmallow
2) The convection process is the transfer of heat from the rising heated combustion products, as well as the heated air that rises from the flame
3) The radiation heat transfer is the transfer of the heat from the fire to the marshmallows directly by the heat the moves in the form of electromagnetic waves at temperatures above 1000 K, without the need for a medium, such that the marshmallow can be heated by the heat coming from side of the flame.
