Radiation – the transfer of energy through space. Heat transfer by radiation takes place with no direct contact between a heat source and an object. Example.

Methods of Energy Transfer

Energy Transfer In the atmosphere.

The Cycling of Energy Key Concept: Various Heat-exchange systems work in the Earth system and affect phenomena on Earth’s surface.

Convection, Conduction, or Radiation I6B TEK I6B – investigate and demonstrate the movement of heat through solids, liquids, and gases by convection, conduction,

Conduction, convection, and radiation are three ways to transfer energy. Section 2: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation.

Conduction, Convection, Radiation. Conduction Transfer of heat by direct contact. Heat flows from the warmer object to the colder object. Solids are better.

CHAPTER 4.2 Convection and the Mantle. Standard  S.6.4.c Students know heat from Earth’s interior reaches the surface primarily through convection.

 Gravitational Contraction ◦ Gravity pulled Earth’s center together causing friction that released heat energy. ◦ This thermal energy is left over.

1.3 notes  There are 3 types of heat transfer: radiation, conduction, and convection.  The transfer of energy through space is radiation. Sunlight.

Density and Mantle Convection Blue Type: Read, listen, and think Black Type: Take notes

A shock wave is high density air Density = Mass / Volume A greater density means more mass in a given volume.

Similar to population density Population density = Number of people / sq. mi.

Why does smoke rise? Smoke is less dense than surrounding air. Air is pulled down by gravity and pushes the smoke up.

Test your understanding You break a brick in half. How does the density of ½ brick compare to the density of the whole brick? A) Density is half as great. B) Density stays the same. C) Density doubles. D) Impossible to tell.

What is convection? Convection: The transfer of heat energy by the movement of matter. Less dense matter rises More dense matter falls

Convection Current Demo

What is needed for convection? Matter that flows: gas, liquid, “plastic” – “Plastic” = a solid that can flow – Silly putty Density that changes as temperature changes Room to flow A gravitational difference (so denser material sinks and pushes less dense material up)

Earth’s Interior is HOT! Earth’s mantle brings heat to the surface by convection. It is released where crust spreads apart. The plates move a few cm per year on average.

Convection Currents in the Mantle

Why do we care? Tsunami, earthquake and volcano predictions depend on knowing about Earth’s interior.

Test your understanding Why does fiberglass insulation in your attic help your house stay warm? A) It produces heat to keep the attic warm. B) It reduces air movement. C) It increases convection. D) It absorbs radiation from the sun.
