Respuesta :

Given:

The water is heated.

To find:

Mode of energy transfer throughout the water.

Explanation:

The heat transfer occurs in three ways: conduction, convection, and radiation.

1) Conduction: In conduction, the heat transfer occurs with the transfer of heat through the matter (solid, liquid, gas) without the bulk movement of the matter.

2) Convection: In convection, the heat transfer occurs with the transfer of heat through the fluid (liquid, gas) with the bulk movement of the molecules within the fluid.

3) Radiation: It is a mode of heat transfer in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

Since water is fluid. And, the heat transfer in fluids generally takes place through convection. A correct option is an option (b).

Conclusion:

The correct option is option b: convection.
