Heat, temperature and transfer

What this quiz covers

The questions focus on distinctions that matter in real calculations: heat versus temperature, energy versus power, conduction versus convection and radiation, thermal resistance, specific heat capacity and the use of absolute temperature in radiation equations.

If an answer surprises you, follow the related guide linked in the explanation. The aim is to connect equations with physical meaning rather than reward memorisation.
