Class 7 · Science
3 ideas in Class 7 Science, explained in plain words, with games and quizzes to practise.
Heat Through Materials
Part of: Conduction
This concept explains heat through materials through heat and water movement.
Why it matters. Heat transfer helps explain everyday warmth, winds and water movement.
Try it in two minutes
- Identify what is being heated.
- Check whether particles move or energy travels as radiation.
- Connect the process to the observed result.
Try at home. With an adult, notice which cup keeps a warm drink warm longer; do not handle hot liquids alone.
