By convection, as heated fluids move from one place to another.

By conduction, as heat flows due to the vibration of atoms and free electrons.

By radiation, as electromagnetic waves carry energy away.

By insulation, preventing heat flow between two regions.

The technique introduced challenges as it increased thermal noise within samples, thus obscuring delicate quantum properties instead of revealing them clearly like conventional approaches did before lasers existed.

Traditional methods remained preferred as they were able to achieve lower temperatures faster than laser-based techniques when dealing with gases at standard laboratory conditions.

Laser cooling was found inadequate because it could only cool atoms individually rather than groups or samples en masse needed for studying many-body physics phenomena effectively.

Laser cooling allowed scientists to reach near absolute zero temperatures where quantum effects become dominant, something not achievable with older methods.

Steam conducts heat to the piston heating it up.

Steam transfers its pressure directly into kinetic energy without engaging with the piston.

The piston absorbs radiant energy from the steam.

Expansion of steam applies force on the piston.

Surface with emissivity $e_1$

Surface with emissivity $e_2$

Neither surface emits less thermal radiation since they're at equal temperatures

The larger surface area regardless emission rate

Conduction

It rotates coils within a magnetic field to induce an electromotive force (EMF).

It maintains permanent magnets in fixed positions relative to conductive loops at all times.

It uses static electricity build-up from friction between components for power generation.

It heats up coils with resistance to generate thermal energy only.

Varying ambient temperatures during measurements for comparison purposes.

Ensure a stable initial temperature distribution along each material before starting measurements.

Using thinner materials to speed up the conduction process.

Applying higher temperature differences across materials for clearer results.

Alternating between increasing and decreasing lengths intermittently will speed up reaching equilibrium.

Decreasing the conductor’s length will decrease the time to reach equilibrium.

The length of the conductor does not affect the time to reach equilibrium.

Increasing the conductor’s length will decrease the time to reach equilibrium.

Both objects retain their initial temperatures due to the perfect isolation of the box.

The cold object will eventually transfer more heat to the hot object as time progresses, resulting in temperature reversal.

The amount of heat in the system decreases as the two objects attempt to reach thermal balance.

Heat will flow from the hot object to the cold one until equilibrium is reached and both objects reach the same temperature.
