Kobe Bryant has been the only player to get close to Chamberlainâs 100-point record by scoring 81 points in 2006 Ã¢â¬â itself a mind-numbing total for a contemporary player.
Substances that allow thermal energy to move easily through them are called conductors. Metals are good conductors of thermal energy. Substances that do not allow thermal energy to move through them easily are called insulators. Air and plastics are insulators.onvection happens when particles with a lot of thermal energy in a liquid or gas move, and take the place of particles with less thermal energy. Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. In order to see this content you need to have both Javascript enabled and Flash installed.
Energy transfer by heating. Energy can be transferred by conduction, convection, evaporation and condensation. All these processes involve particles. Conduction. Is the movement of thermal energy through a material without the particles in the material moving. Glass, wood and plastic are all poor conductors of heat. Heat is the kinetic energy of particles as they vibrate. If we heat the particles at one end of a material the particles at that end vibrate more (have more kinetic energy) and bump into the neighbouring particles which causes them to vibrate more.
