Dan got into his car in the middle of summer. when he sat on the hot black leather seats, he burned his legs. his sister said that conduction was the reason dan burned his legs, but dan blamed the sunshine and said it was radiation that caused him to get burned. who was right and why? question 24 options: both dan and his sister are right. the sun heated the car seats through radiation heat transfer, but then dan touched the seat and the heat was conducted to his legs. dan was right because the sun heated the car without touching it. that is radiation. dan's sister was right because conduction can transfer heat through both solids and fluids (such as air). dan's sister was correct because dan's legs touched the car seats. that is an indicator of heat transfer by conduction.
