Answer on Question #56357-Physics-Mechanics-Relativity
What is a predominant mode of heat transfer in solids?
Answer
Conduction.
If a solid material such as copper is placed between the plates in perfect contact, then heat is transferred by Conduction. In solids, heat conduction involves transfer of energy by (a) vibrations through the lattice structure of the solid and/or (b) free electrons. Good electrical conductors like copper are also good heat conductors.
