Interaction in The Atmosphere and Heat Transfer

Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a given space and time.

Climate is the same as weather.

Everything that happens in the atmosphere happens because of solar energy.

When the ground heats the air, [blank_start]conduction[blank_end] happens.

When the warm air rises, [blank_start]convection[blank_end] happens.

When the sun heats the ground, [blank_start]radiation[blank_end] happens.

Heat always moves from a warmer substance to a cooler substance.

All modes of heat transfer requires a [blank_start]temperature difference[blank_end].

Conduction refers to the transfer of radiant energy.

Convection refers to heat transfer that occurs between a surface and a fluid (at rest or in motion) when they are at different temperatures.

Radiation refers to the transfer of radiant energy.

Material through which energy passes are called [blank_start]conductors[blank_end].

Materials which do not allow heat to pass through are [blank_start]nonconductors[blank_end] or [blank_start]insulators[blank_end].
