What else can I help you with?
Does heat travel through empty space by conduction?
No, heat does not travel through empty space by conduction because conduction requires particles to transfer heat energy from one molecule to another. In empty space, heat transfer occurs through radiation, where energy is transferred via electromagnetic waves.
Does heat energy travel through by space by convection?
No
Can heat energy travel through space by convection?
Yes it can
How do we know that heat can travel through space?
We can feel the warmth of the sun!
Can heat travel through vacuum?
Yes. Just look at how heat travles from space to Earth.
Does heat travel through space by convection?
No, convection requires the movement of particles. Since space is a vacuum, there are no particles present.
What is the transfer of heat through space by heat?
The transfer of heat through space by radiation is known as thermal radiation. It does not require a medium for heat to travel and can occur in a vacuum. The amount of heat transferred depends on the temperature and surface properties of the objects involved.
Can heat radiation travel through a vacuum?
Yes, heat radiation can travel through a vacuum because it does not require a medium for transfer like conduction or convection. This is why the Sun's heat can reach the Earth through the vacuum of space.
Why can heat travel through space by radiation?
I guess you mean how can heat travel through space. It is a good question because we know space is very cold. Radiation is a wavelength that when it hits solids objects creates molecular vibration, which causes friction which in turn produces heat.
What type of heat transfer does NOT require anything to travel through?
Radiation is a type of heat transfer that does not require a medium to travel through. It can occur through space and air, as it involves the transfer of heat energy in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Does heat travel through a vacuum?
Actually heat cannot travel through vacuum. sun emits radiations (obviously electromagnetic radiations.) which needs no medium to travel. hence these radiations travel through space and reaches earth where it interacts with atmosphere. when these radiations fall on media like air, water land etc. the radiation is converted into heat energy. Thus it is clear that heat from sun is converted into radiations which travel through space and reaches earth where it is converted to light.
What is radiation in heat terms?
Radiation is when no atoms or molecules are involved in the transfer of heat or energy. This is when energy can travel through empty space . Ex:sun heats earth through space;radiation.
