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.
The thermal conductivity of a material is a quantitative measure of how much heat will flow through a material per unit time for a given temperature gradient. In the simplest materials the mechanism of heat transfer may be described at the microscopic level as transfer of energy through collisions between atoms and molecules. In a higher temperature region region the atoms and molecules have more kinetic energy than in a low temperature region.
