This chapter, 'Heat Transfer in Nature', from the NCERT Class 7 Science textbook 'Curiosity', delves into the fundamental mechanisms by which heat moves from one place to another. It explores the three primary modes of heat transfer (conduction, convection, and radiation) and their significant roles in everyday phenomena and natural processes like land and sea breezes. Understanding these concepts helps us explain why we choose certain clothes for different seasons and how various materials behave when heated.

In-text Questions

Answer: A metal spoon kept in a cup of hot tea becomes hot due to the process of conduction. Heat from the hot tea is transferred to the spoon, and since metal is a good conductor, the heat quickly travels along the spoon from the hotter end to the colder end, making it hot.

- Heat from the hot tea is transferred to the part of the spoon immersed in the tea.
- Metals are good conductors of heat.
- Through the process of conduction, heat energy is transferred from the hotter particles of the spoon to the adjacent colder particles along its length.
- This continuous transfer of energy causes the entire metal spoon to become hot.
