  • Heat Transfer in Solids: Understanding Conduction
    The statement "heat travels through solids by conduction" is true.

    Here's why:

    * Conduction: Heat transfer by conduction occurs when heat energy is transferred through direct contact between molecules.

    * Solids: In solids, molecules are tightly packed together, allowing for efficient transfer of heat energy through vibrations and collisions.

    Example: If you hold a metal spoon in a hot cup of coffee, the heat from the coffee will transfer to the spoon by conduction, making the spoon feel warm.
