extremely hot.When a student went to open the car doo , he burned his finger. What two forms of energy were responsible for the student burning his fingers

radiation and conduction

Explanation:

During a warm summer day, a car became extremely hot. When a student went to open the car door, he burned his fingers. What two forms of energy were responsible for the student burning his fingers?

Solution:

Heat is the transfer of energy from a warmer object to a cooler object. For heat transfer to occur, there have to be a difference in temperature between two objects.  

Heat can be transferred in three ways: by conduction, by convection, and by radiation.

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy between bodies through direct contact. Convection is the transfer of thermal energy through the movement of heat in a liquid or gas. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through thermal emission by electromagnetic waves.

During a warm summer day, The sun makes the car to become hot through energy transfer from the sun to the car. When the student touch the car, there is heat transfer as a result of conduction.
