    This document defines heat waves and the three main modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction involves direct contact between substances as heat transfers from hotter to colder materials. Convection occurs within fluids as heated material rises and cooler material sinks. Radiation transfers heat through empty space without contact by emitting electromagnetic waves. Examples are provided for each mode of transfer including cooking food, boiling water, and glowing heaters. The essential role of the sun as the primary source of heat for Earth is highlighted.

    TYPE OF ACTIVITY : CONCEPT NOTES


    ACTIVITY TITLE : FORM OF WAVE – HEAT WAVES: ITS DEFINITION AND MODES OF TRANSFER
    LEARNING TARGET/S : I can define Heat Waves and infer the conditions necessary for its transfer.
    REFERENCE/S : Exploring Life through Science by Josefina Ma. Pavico et. al. pp. 244 - 250
    From the previous lesson, you’ve learned that there are four Forms of Wave namely Sound Waves,
    Light Waves, Heat Waves and Electrical Waves. Now, in this lesson you are going to learn about the Heat
    Waves.
    Heat Waves or Heat is an Electromagnetic and Transvers wave. It is produced when there is a
    constant vibration of particles (either atom or molecules) with one another. Heat can travel through
    solids, liquids gasses or even on an empty space or vacuum.
    The Particle Theory of Matter states that matter consists of many very small particles (atoms or
    molecules), which are in constant motion and are held together by attractive forces. The speed by which
    atoms and molecules move depends largely on the energy they contain. This energy is called Heat or Heat
    Waves and is transferred of between two substances with different temperatures. Heat always travels
    form the hotter to colder substance. It is expressed in the unit of joule (J). By contrast, temperature refers
    to the degree of “hotness” or “coldness” of a substance and is measured using a temperature scale. The
    Fahrenheit (°F), Celsius (°C) and Kelvin (K) scales are used to measure temperature. Temperature is a
    measure of the average kinetic energy of the individual atoms or molecules in a substance.
    Whenever heat travels, it always travels from one substance to another that has a lower
    temperature. Heat in the environment may be transferred by conduction, convection or radiation.
