A) Conduction
B) Convection
C) Radiation
D) None
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
| [a] Conduction is the process of transmission of heat in a body from the hotter part to the colder part without any bodily movement of constituent atoms or molecules of the body. |
| [b] In convection, the heated lighter particles move upward and colder heavier particles move downward to their place. This depends on weight and hence, on gravity. |
| [c] Radiation is the process of transmission of heat from one body to another body through electronegative waves even through vaccum, irrespective of their temperatures. |
| Hence, choice [b] is correct. |
