Question

Due to conduction, the heat of an object can be felt from a distance.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. It is a process of heat transfer from a hotter to a cooler end of a body at different temperatures, which are in contact with each other.
2. For example, a metal spoon kept in a pan of boiling water also gets heated. This happens because heat from the hot liquid flows into the metal spoon by conduction.
3. So we can not feel the heat from a distance in conduction.

Hence, the given statement is false.
