1 The transfer of thermal energy by conduction and convection requires a medium T/F
2 Liquids and gases do not transfer thermal energy by conduction. T/F
3 Metals are better conductors than non-metals because metals have free electrons T/F
4 Wool is effective insulator because it contains pockets of still air. T/F
5 It is better to place an air-conditioner at a high place so that convection currents will cause effective cooling. T/F
6 Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy by ultra-violet radiation T/F
7 Thermal energy transfer by radiation is dependent on surface area. T/F
8 A good emitter is also a good absorber of heat. T/F
9 A silvery surface is a good emitter and good reflector of heat. T/F
10 Food is kept warm when wrapped with aluminium foil because aluminium is a good reflector of heat T/F
11 Only if there is a high temperature difference then radiation can occur. T/F

Other questionable questions:
Glass - good or bad radiator ?
Which transfers heat the fastest amongst the 3 methods?
Is radiation occuring at any temperature ? Then when does it not occur? ( not really a questionable question )
If you stand in the sun for many hours, will the colour of your shirt REALLY make a difference ?
