How does energy travel to Earth?
There are three types of transferrable energy: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction- heat that moves from solid object to solid object by physical means. Convection- heat that moves about a gaseous object (think about boiling water) Radiation- light energy that can travel through space and needs no object to transfer through. The correct answer for this question would be radiation.
How do you explain the difference between conduction convection or radiation can transfer heat explain?
It's a different way to transfer heat. One object emits electromagnetic radiation (for example, infrared - though it depends on the temperature); another object absorbs it. Heat transfer through radiation can occur in empty space; with conduction and convection, that's not possible.
Which type of body heat loss is characterized by heat transfer from the surface of one object to the surface of another object without actual contact?
Radiation.
How is radiation and conduction alike?
both radiation and conduction give heat to another object.
What does heat travel through space as?
By Radiation. There Are three modes of heat transfer depending on medium(like fliud or solid). Conduction(solids and fliuds), Convection (fliuds) and Radiation(vaccum). In space there is no medium i.e,Vaccum.So that in space the heat transfer the mode of radiation.

Is a solid liquid or gas sread by conduction?
Conduction is a form of heat transfer. The other forms are radiation and convection. Conduction is the normal way for heat to spread throughout a solid object. Convection is the normal way for gases and liquids.
What do we call a transfer of heat into and through a solid object?
Conduction

How thermal energy is transferred by radiation?
Radiation is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves. Considering the dual nature of electromagnetic radiation, you could also consider it to be transferred by photons of the electromagnetic radiation. The rate of transfer of radiation is given by the surface area of the radiation source, the surface area of the object receiving the radiation, a geometric coefficient accounting for how much of the radiation from the source actually hits the receiving object, a physical constant called the Stephan-Boltzman constant, the reflectivity, transparency, and absorbtivity of the receiving object for the wavelengths of the radiated energy, and the difference in the 4th power of the thermodynamic temperatures of the objects.
Why do you not need a substance for heat transfer?
Any object emits electromagnetic radiation (heat radiation, usually infrared), according to its temperature. This can travel in empty space.
Is a curling iron conduction convection or radiation?
According to Wikipedia, convection is a heat transfer proces that requires the presence of something to transfer that heat, but it is a process that happens in fluids. Conduction is transfer of heat from a hot object to a less hot object, in this case from a hot curling iron to your hair. Radiation heat transfer is by its nature different from convection in that it does NOT require a medium. Since we are not talking about fluids or about heat transfer without the help of an medium, the process you are looking for is conduction
What is the difference between the transfer of heat by conduction and that by radiation?
In conduction, parts of the object move, taking their heat with them. In radiation, the body transfers heat by electromagnetic radiation - often in the infra-red wavelengths.
What is radiation is the transfer of energy?
what is the transfer of thermal energy by radiation
