Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the process of heat transfer through a fluid due to density differences called? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that heat can move from one place to another.
  • Step 2: Know that fluids include liquids and gases.
  • Step 3: Learn that when a fluid is heated, it becomes less dense.
  • Step 4: Realize that less dense fluid rises while denser fluid sinks.
  • Step 5: Recognize that this movement creates a flow of heat.
  • Step 6: Identify that this process of heat transfer due to density differences is called convection.
