By the end of this lesson you will be able to:

Name the three methods of heat transfer

Explain what the term
Investigate the factors which affect the rate
that an object transfers heat energy
Work safely to conduct a practical
investigation

When hot objects cool, energy is transferred to

the surface by conduction and from the surface
by convection what factors affect this?

Factors affecting the rate of heat transfer:

Surface area and volume

Type of material
Type of surface object is in contact with
Temperature difference
