Question

Arielle is preparing a delightful egg breakfast for her friends. She grabs an

egg from the refrigerator that is 3°C and her hand is 34°C. What form of
thermal energy transfer is occurring? *

Answer 1

The form of thermal energy transfer occurring is conduction heat or thermal transfer

Step-by-step explanation:

Conductive heat or thermal energy transfer occurs by the microscopic collisions and diffusion of particles and electron movement within a body that brings about the transfer of the internal energy from one body (the hot body) to another body (the cold body)

When Arielle holds the 3°C egg within her palm that is 34°C hot, the collision of the microscopic particles in motion at the boundary surface transfer heat energy at a microscopic level from Arielle's palm into the body of the egg by further collision and diffusion. The process continues until an equilibrium temperature is reached.
