Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Within a solid, the heat transfer occurs through the transfer of energy from more energetic particles to less energetic particles in adjacent parts of the material by means of the vibration of those particles. This mode of heat transfer is known as conduction. Convection and radiation do not occur in solids as they require the movement of fluids or electromagnetic waves, respectively.
