W Hot objects have more heat energy than cooler ones. Why do hot objects have more energy than cooler ones? How is this energy transferred?

DEMO: conductivity tray which lights matches Class: Conduction of metal rods

W Heat energy flows from hot objects to cooler ones. In which direction does heat energy flow?

W Heat energy stops flowing when objects are the same temperature. When does heat energy stop flowing?

Heat energy can transfer through contact known as conduction. What do we call energy transfer through contact?

Conduction occurs when fast moving (hot) particles collide with slower (cooler) particles. When does conduction occur?

Energy is passed on as the fast moving particles slow down as the slower particles speed up. Why does energy transfer in conduction?
