?
Conduction
Caused by the transferral of heat energy through the collisions of atoms.

The Doppler Effect
The observed change in the frequency of a wave relative to the position of a stationary observer.
2 of 5
Infrared Radiation
A form of electromagnetic wave (therefore can pass through a vacuum!).

Convection
Occurs in fluids (liquids and gases)
