Thermal Properties of Matter

  1. The presence of gravitational field is required for the heat transfer by
    1. conduction
    2. stirring of liquids
    3. natural convection
    4. radiation
Correct Option: C

In convection, the temperature gradient exists in the vertical direction and not in the horizontal direction. So, up and down movement of particles takes place which depends on the weight and gravity.
