Question is ambiguous: Why do you think this happens ”This happens” could mean why is the plate different temperatures. Heat conduction is the cause of the change in temperature. Also, “happens” and “happened” aren’t the same thing. Happens: why does the plate have different (or changes) temperatures? Heat conduction. Happened: why is the rad-facing side cooler? I’m trying to trick you.
