Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the three main types of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation.
Understand that conduction is heat transfer through direct contact between materials.
Recognize that convection involves heat transfer through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases).
Know that radiation is heat transfer through electromagnetic waves, which can occur through a vacuum or air without direct contact.
Since feeling heat from a fire occurs without touching the fire or relying on air movement, it is an example of radiation.
