There are a couple of ways of converting electromagnetic energy (sunlight) into chemical energy.
First, grow plants. The chlorophyll in the plants convert sunlight and water into plant matter. Trees grow into wood, olive trees can be harvested for oil, and almost any kind of vegetable matter can be converted into alcohol.
Second, use a solar power cell to charge a battery.
The energy transferred through matter or space as EM waves is photons aka light.
Electrons absorb radiant energy that is resonant with the matters structure.
through radiation
radar;radar means :the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.
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.
Thermonuclear fusion in the core of the star heats the material of the star. A series of complex energy transfer mechanisms transport the heat from the core to the photosphere of the star. The photosphere then emits electromagnetic radiation.
Usually optical energy.
This is illogical question.hahah because as u know solar radiations are available everywhere and so we can generate energy from everywhere using solar radiations. This is the most cheap source of energy.It requires only one time cost and lasts for many years. In this process we use a solar panel which is made of silicon,the solar radiations fall on this panel and convert these radiations into electric d.c voltages and these d.c voltages convert into a.c voltages by using inverters.
what do you call the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves
Radio.
radiations are in the form of waves and waves are the mode of energy transfer.
Electromagnetic radiations and kinetic energy; they are transformed in thermal energy.
Electromagnetic waves transfer energy.
Electromagnetic waves transfer energy.
It's the emission of electromagnetic energy from something, not the transfer. That em-radiation could travel for ever across the universe, never interacting with anything ever again and it would still be radiation.________________________________________________________Not all radiation is electromagnetic engery. Electromagnetic energy is transfered by way of photons. Photons are emited through gamma radiation and black body radiation. Nuclear decay of alpha particles and beta particles (which are also considered radiations) are actual particles that have mass, and are not electromagnetic radiation.
Convection.
Yes, it is the transfer of electromagnetic waves.
one energy that thermal energy can transfer into is radiation energy. It can transfer into that because of the electromagnetic waves.
It isn't clear to me what you mean with "transfer to". In any case, visible light IS electromagnetic radiation. There is no need to transfer or convert anything.
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
