State applications of conduction and radiation.

1 Answer

Answer :

Applications of conduction:- 1) Bad conductor of heat is used as insulators. E.g. glass , thermo Cole , sawdust etc. 2) The calorimeters are kept in wooden box. 3) The coils of heavy duty transformers are kept in oil to protect it from excessive heat. 4) Thermos flax contain double walled glass vessel with vacuum to maintain the constant temperature. 5) Flame of Safety lamps is covered with good conducting material. 6) Thermal insulator is used to prevent heat loss to the environment.
