Question

Heat would best be transferred by conduction between A) a candle and the air. B) an oven and a glass dish. C) a stove and a copper pot. D) water and a wooden spoon.

Answer 1

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Conduction is a process where transfer of heat occurs when two objects of different temperature are held next to each other. Heat gets transferred from hot substance to cool substance.

For example, when a copper pot is placed over a stove then heat transfers from stove to the copper pot.

Thus, we can conclude that heat would best be transferred by conduction between a stove and a copper pot.
