I. Objectives
After performing this activity, the learners should be able to identify examples of situations that
involve the different methods of heat transfer.
II. Materials
LAS
III. Procedures
1. Encircle (9) situations in the drawing that involve any method of heat transfer. Label them 1,
2, 3, 4, 5 and so on. Identify the situations if it is conduction, convection or radiation.
2. Note that in your chosen situations, there could be more than one heat transfer taking place
at the same time.

Guide Questions:

1. What are the three methods of heat transfer?

2. Based from the picture, mother touching the spoon, did heat transfer takes place between her
finger and the object? What is conduction?

3. You have just observed another method of heat transfer called convection. In your own words,
how does convection takes place?

4. How is radiation different from conduction and convection?

Direction: Read and understand each questions carefully. Choose the letter that best describes your
answer.

A. conduction B. convection C. dispersion D. radiation
3. Walking on the hot sand with your bare feet is an example of what type of heat transfer?
A. conduction B. convection C. insolation D. radiation
4. What mode of heat transfer does not need particles or a medium to take place?
A. Conduction B. Convection C. Heat D. Radiation
5. Which of the following is not an example of radiation?
A. Sun’s rays B. Heat from a fire C. Stir frying in a pan D. Baking in an oven
6. Which of the following situations BEST describes heat transfer due to radiation?
A. Boiling of hot water in a pan. B. Algae blooms in ponds and lakes.
C. Warm water rises in a swimming pool. D. Feeling warm while standing near a bonfire.
7. Which of the following is an example of convection?
A. Heating water on the stove. B. Heat from a light bulb.

type of heat transfer?
A. Conduction B. Convection C. Cooking D. Radiation
10. You are holding an ice cream while walking on the street, and you noticed your ice cream is
starting to melt. What type of heat transfer is this?

Activity 1. Warm Me Up, Cool Me Down!

I. Objectives

After performing this activity, the learners should be able to describe the condition necessary for heat
transfer to take place.

II. Materials
 2 small containers (drinking cups or glasses)
 2 big containers (enough to accommodate the small containers)
 tap water
 hot water
 laboratory thermometer (with reading up to 100⁰C)
 III. Procedures
1. Label the small and big containers.
2. Half fill containers, 1, 2 and A with tap water. Half fill also container B with hot water. Be careful
when you pour hot water into the container.
3. Measure the initial temperature of water in each of the 4 containers, in degree Celsius (⁰C).
Record your measurements in a table similar to Table 1.
4. Carefully place container 1 inside container A. This will be your Set up 1.
5. Place also container 2 inside container B. This will be your Set up 2.
6. Measure the temperature of water in all containers 2 minutes after arranging the set-ups.
Record again your measurements in the table (after 2 minutes).
7. Continue to measure and record the temperature of water after 4, 6, 8 and 10 minutes. Write all
your measurements in the table below.

Guide Questions:

1. In which set up did you find changes in the temperature of water inside the containers? In which
set up did you NOT find changes in the temperature of water inside the containers?
2. In which set up is heat transfer taking place between the containers?
3. What then is the condition necessary for heat transfer to take place between objects?
4. Which container contains water with higher initial temperature? What happens to it's
temperature after 2 minutes?
5. Which container contains water with lower initial temperature? What happens to it's
temperature after 2 minutes?
6. If heat is related to temperature, what then is the direction of heat transfer between the
containers?
7. What happens to the temperature of water in each container after 4, 6, 8 and 10 minutes? What
does this tell us about the heat transfer taking place between the containers?
8. Until when do you think will heat transfer continue to take place between the containers?
