NEET Physics Heat Transfer MCQ Question
Imagine a diagram showing the process of heat transfer from a fire to a person standing nearby. The diagram illustrates three possible modes of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Which mode of heat transfer is primarily responsible for the person feeling warmth directly from the fire?
Radiation
Conduction
Convection
Evaporation
Correct Answer
