What else can I help you with?
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.
How do we know light can travel through outer space?
We can see stars.
How do you know that heat is transferred from the sun to earth by radiation?
It cannot be transmitted by conduction nor convection because there is no material connection between the sun and the Earth. Conduction and convection need a medium through which to travel, and since the space between the Earth and the Sun is considered a vacuum, they cannot occur. However, radiation does not require a medium through which to travel. It can travel through a vacuum, and therefore space. Therefore, it's the only surviving option for heat transmission.
What type of wave can't travel through empty space?
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves, require a medium (such as air, water, or a solid) to travel through and cannot travel through empty space. Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves, can travel through empty space because they do not require a medium.
How do you know light can travel through outer space?
Light can travel through outer space because it propagates as electromagnetic waves, which do not require a medium to travel through. This means that light can move through the vacuum of space without any obstacles. This property of light allows it to travel vast distances from its source, such as from stars to telescopes on Earth.
Can gamma rays travel through empty space?
Yes, gamma rays can travel through empty space because they are a form of electromagnetic radiation like light. They are the most energetic form of electromagnetic radiation and can pass through most materials, including empty space, due to their high penetrating power.
Where does radiation take place?
this answer is really hard to find and I think radiation takes place in hospitals in case of some x-rays, in the space for sun's heat to travel through to earth as I am small and in grade seven I may not know much
What form of heat energy can travel through a vacuum?
Thermal energy can refer to the molecular energy in a substance, which can be transmitted by the movement of the molecules affecting adjacent molecules. Thermal energy is also a form of radiation and as such is transmitted through a vacuum until it hits an object, which is then heated by it until the two objects reach an equilibrium in temperature.
Is space travel is safe?
space travel is extremly dangerous.but the real question is,is it woth it?
What are facts about space travel?
don't really know
how do I know about all the creatures in space?
To travel in the universe!
What kind of heat transfer occurs through open space?
in think it is i dont know thats why im on this website dumb dumbs lol
