Question

What conduction means ?

Answer 1

Hint:In order to solve this question let me tell you that simply the conduction means the to conduct anything from the other thing such as we can see a lot of conduction in our daily life such as the conduction of heat or the electricity from one place to another.

Complete answer:
For solving this question from the physics point of view let me tell you that the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through the material of a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.
-The act of conducting or conveying.
-Transmission through or by means of a conductor also : the transfer of heat through matter by communication of kinetic energy from particle to particle with no net displacement of the particles compared to convection, radiation.

Let me explain with the help of some examples Heat will transfer from a hot burner on the stove into a pot or pan. A metal spoon becomes hot from the boiling water inside the pot. Chocolate candy in your hand will eventually melt as heat is conducted from your hand to the chocolate. When ironing a skirt, the iron is hot and the heat is transferred to the skirt.

Note:While solving these types of questions we should know that there are some things which we pretend to be conductors but those things are actually insulators such as we know that the wood is burnt so we think it as conductor but in actual it is an insulator.
