    A). Convection is heating the soup in the pot.

    When you stick the spoon into the hot soup,

    conduction heats the spoon all the way up to the end.

    b). Water conducts heat a little bit.

    But convection is much more responsible for the

    uniform distribution of temperature in the kiddie pool.

    c). The heat from the metal bench conducts directly

    to the buttus epidermis when you sit on it.

    d). You feel the heat on your face ... but not on the back of your

    neck ... on account of radiation from the fire and the hot grill.
