When solar energy travels from the sun through a vacuum of space to the earth?
Energy from the sun travels through the vacuum of space by radiation.
How can the command centre communicate with the space ship in space if outer space is a vacuum?
They use radio waves which are a type of electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum Ligth is a type of electromagnetic wave and that travels through space from the sun and the stars.
Does light travels slowest through space?
As the medium through which light propagates in space is closes to a vacuum, light propagates very well in space. However, it travels at the same speed as it would on earth, as light travels at 299,792,458m/s in a vacuum, regardless of where that vacuum is located. the light travels in same speed whether it travels in space or earth.
Can microwave travel through vacuum?
A microwave is near the "red" side of the electromagnetic scale. All electromagnetic travels at the same rate. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation which travels through a vacuum (space). Thereofore, being a part of electormagnetic radiation, microwaves will travel through a vacuum.
What is the velocity of electromagnetic energy?
In free space in a vacuum, EM energy travels at 300,000 km/sec
How does the energy of the sun reach earth and moon and other planets?
Radiation if that's the answer you're looking for... Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves (or light energy) traveling through space (but not outer space, just space like in the air).
Light travels at a rate of?
299,792,458 meters per second in vacuum
What travels in waves in space?
Electromagnetic Wave
Is a vacuum still a vacuum if there are electromagnetic waves in the vacuum?
Yes, a vacuum is still a vacuum if electromagnetic waves are present. A vacuum is an area with no matter in it. We know that matter is anything which has mass and takes up space. Electromagnetic waves have no mass, and certianly take up no space. They're energy.
how does the energy from space the sun travel through space to the earth?
Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation. Most of the electromagnetic radiation that comes to the earth from the sun is invisible. ... In electromagnetic radiation, its frequency is the number of electromagnetic waves moving past a point each second.
How does the sun produce energy and how is it transferred to the earth?
The sun produces energy via nuclear fusion. Electromagnetic energy in the form of light travels through the vacuum of space to reach earth via what we call radiation.
How do you know that electromagnetic waves can travel thought a vacuum?
Light being electromagnetic wave is able to traverse right from Sun to the Earth through vacuum existing in between the two. This confirms electromagnetic wave can traverse through free space. Now free space itself is a medium but not a material medium.
