The image shows conduction, radiation, and convection taking place simultaneously.
A pan with boiling water on a lit gas stove burner. Arrows pointing out from the fire into the air are labeled as radiation. Curved arrows moving in a circular type direction from the bottom of the pan to the top of the boiling water are labeled as convection. Part of the pan handle attached to the pan is labeled as conduction.
How do convection and radiation compare in terms of heat transfer?
Group of answer choices
Both convection and radiation require a very high amount of heat energy as the source to transfer heat through the rapid collision of atoms.
Convection transfers heat by electromagnetic waves, while radiation transfers heat through the rapid collision of the atoms.
Convection transfers heat through the circular motion of heated material, while radiation transfers heat by electromagnetic waves.
Both convection and radiation cause heat to spread over only a small area in a circular motion.
