Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which law states that the rate of heat transfer through a material is proportional to the temperature difference across it?
  • Step 1: Understand that heat transfer occurs when there is a difference in temperature.
  • Step 2: Recognize that some materials allow heat to pass through them.
  • Step 3: Learn that there is a specific law that describes how heat moves through materials.
  • Step 4: Identify that this law is called Fourier's Law.
  • Step 5: Know that Fourier's Law states that the amount of heat transferred depends on the temperature difference between two areas.
