Heat Travels from the sun to the earth by means of a process called?

Heat travels from the sun to the Earth through a process called radiation. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves such as light.


How do convection and radiation differ?

Those are three different means by which heat can travel. In convection, heat is carried by moving matter. In conduction, heat is transferred by means of a physical contact between two objects of different temperature. With radiation, energy is emitted in the form of electromagnetic radiation, usually in the infrared spectrum.

Does Heat have shorter wavelengths than visible light?

No. Heat is infrared radiation ("infra" means "lower"). Lower frequency means longer wavelength. All radiation is captured by antennas that resonate at the frequency of the radiation. The "antennas" for visible light are electrons that use the radiation to jump into excited states and cause optical neurons to fire. The "antennas" of heat (infrared) are bigger -- they are molecules that jiggle faster when the radiation hits them. That jiggling is heat.
