Mostly by electromagnetic radiation - heat and light. But there is a Solar Wind that consists of real particles. This causes Aurora on earth at high latitudes.

How can you tell if solar energy has heated Earth or if energy from the sun has transferred to Earth?
Very simply, you can "see" the sun or feel the sun's warmth. Both of these tell you that solar energy from the sun has transferred to earth.
Is energy a cycle or flow and why?
Energy does not move around in cycles. The reason is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Here is an example: The energy from the Sun comes to Earth, where it maintains life. From Earth, the energy is radiated out into space, where it gets more and more diffuse. This energy can't be recovered again; it won't get back into the Sun - and most of it will not participate in the creation of new stars, either.
What does earth's energy budget mean?
It's the amount of energy given out by the sun, and the energy received by the earth. Within that is the energy reflected and the energy given off from the earth.
What energy is transferred from the sun to the earth?
the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
