This is specifically the example of Conduction as Heat flows from leather to your skin!

Alyson Sanchez · Answer 2

Heat can be transferred from one object to another in 3 different ways.

1) Conduction : This is the mode of transfer of heat through solid medium.

Example : A metal rod getting hot when hold over a flame.

2) Convection : This is the mode of transfer of heat through liquids

Example : Boiling of water.

3) Radiation : This type of heat transfer does not require any medium.

Example : When we stand close to a campfire, we feel warmer. Here the heat travels through air.

In the given problem, when a person gets into a car with hot black leather, his skin comes in contact with the hot object. Here the heat gets transferred through the skin which is a solid medium.

Therefore this is an example of conduction.
