When energy is transferred some energy is converted into what?
Heat, or Infrared energy.
Transfer of energy from the sun to earth's surface?
That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.That is transferred mainly through visible and infrared light.
The Earth is warmed by solar energy. How is this energy transferred from the sun to the Earth?
By radiation: mainly in the infrared wavelengths.
What is the energy you sense as heat called?
It is called thermal energy. It can be transferred by conduction, convection, or by radiation of infrared waves.
Evidences that energy can be transferred from one body to another?
In cooking my breakfast, I notice that heat is transferred from the stove elements to the pot in which my porridge is cooking.
What are examples of energy tranfers?
cooking, watering the garden and all daily activities can be examples for energy transfer . in cooking heat energy is transferred and in watering pressure energy gets transferred as kinetic energy. if you want high mannered example energy transfer occurs in reactors , boilers, ....etc
What tranfers thermal energy when objects are heated by radiation?
In that case, the energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves. For example, at room temperature that would be infrared.
The process of emitting radiant energy?
When radiation is given off, it's transferred through empty space by infrared rays.
How is heat transferred by infrared radiation?
It is the radiation itself that transfers the heat energy in this case. Infrared is almost exactly the same thing as visible light (simply of a different frequencies); each photon (light particle) carries part of the energy.
Fast food restaurants keep food hot with infrared lamps. The heat is transferred to the food by?
The infrared heat is transferred to the food by radiation.
How is heat transferred through a vacuum?
Only by radiation. Infrared waves waves don't require a material medium to pass through. Heat energy is transmitted even through vacuum in the form of infrared waves. We get heat energy from sun in this way.
What is an everyday example showing how heat is absorbed from visible radiation and transferred to infrared radiation?
Infrared Radiation is at a Frequency that is outside of the range of the Visible Spectrum. Visible light does not 'become' Infrared Light. If a light source is giving off energy in the form of HEAT it is emitting Infrared Energy, as well as Visible Light. A light source can also "Heat" matter by giving off energy such as X-Rays, or Gamma Rays, or more commonly MICROWAVE Radiation.
