Explanation:
Conduction is a form of heat transfer between one body and another. It usually occurs when a warmer object is in contact with a cooler one. Heat generally flows from a region of high temperature to a place at a lower temperature.
- Conduction is very pronounced in solid bodies.
- The heat transfer causes a net transfer of the average kinetic energy of one body to the other.
- Some examples are: heating of iron by a hotter metallic body, the pot hand getting hotter as cooking continues, cooling of ice by touching it.
