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.
What else can I help you with?
What form of energy does light travel to earth?
Light from the sun travels to Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
How does heat energy from the sun get to the earth?
RadiationHeat can't travel through a vacuum, directly, so the sun emits energy as light. The earth receives about a two billionth of the sunlight emitted, but the light is converted to heat and other energy forms.
Does energy from sun travel to earth as mechanical energy?
No, the energy from the sun travels to Earth mainly in the form of electromagnetic radiation, such as sunlight. This energy is transformed into other forms of energy, such as heat and light, when it interacts with Earth's atmosphere and surface.
What energy travels to earth as what type of waves?
The sun emits energy known as electromagnetic radiation, which includes various types of waves such as visible light, ultraviolet rays, and infrared radiation. These waves travel through space and reach the Earth, providing heat and light necessary for life.
Why does sound energy only travel in earth?
Sound energy can travel through air, water, and solids like earth because these substances can transmit the vibrations created by sound waves. Sound waves move by compressing and rarefying the medium they are traveling through, which allows the energy to be carried from one point to another, including through the solid medium of the Earth.
What did energey from the sun travel to Earth as?
Energy from the sun to Earth travels as electromagnetic energy, or light energy.
What are waves of energy that travel through earth?
Sound waves
How does energy that reaches the earth from the sun travel?
It is done by radiation.
How does the sun' energy travel to the earth?
Electromagnetic radiation... i.e., light. Electromagnetic Waves A+
How does the suns energy reach Earth?
Waves of heat and light, called radiation, travel to earth.
What form of energy does light travel to earth?
Light from the sun travels to Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
How does the sun give its energy to the Earth when space has no gravity?
The sun gives its energy to the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of sunlight. Gravity doesn't play a direct role in the transfer of energy from the sun to the Earth. Space may be a vacuum, but light and energy can still travel through it.
Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction.?
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
What does energy travel through before hitting the earth's surface?
dookie and halitosis
How does heat energy from the sun get to the earth?
RadiationHeat can't travel through a vacuum, directly, so the sun emits energy as light. The earth receives about a two billionth of the sunlight emitted, but the light is converted to heat and other energy forms.
Vibrations that travel through Earth carrying the energy released during an earthquake?
Seismic waves are vibrations that travel through the Earth's layers, carrying the energy released during an earthquake. These waves can be classified into two main types: body waves that travel through the Earth's interior and surface waves that travel along the Earth's surface. Seismometers are used to detect and record these waves.
What forms of electromagnetic energy carry most of the energy of the sun to earth?
It is radiated electromagnetic energy, the only sort that can travel through space.
