Why does hot air rise? The greater motion of the molecules in hot air creates more space
between the molecules, making the hot air less dense than cooler air.
This causes it to rise on top of the cooler air, pushing the cool air down.




Temperature A measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object.

Heat thermal energy in transfer from one body of matter to another




Three methods of heat transfer conduction, convection, radiation




Conduction The direct transfer of heat from one substance to another substance
that it is touching.
