Heat transfer by conduction is similar to wave motion because
- there is increase in temperature
- transfer of materials is involved
- charged particles vibrates at right angles
-
no transfer of materials is involved
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
Heat transfer by conduction is similar to wave motion because no transfer of materials is involved. In conduction, heat is transferred from molecule to molecule within a substance without moving the substance as a whole. This is similar to wave motion where energy is transferred from particle to particle within the medium without any net movement of the medium itself.
