What else can I help you with?
In an air conditioner how is thermal energy transferred?
Thermal energy is transferred from areas of higher temperatures to areas with lower temperatures.
When you feel the warmth of the sun on your face what type of thermal energy transfer are you experiencing?
You are experiencing radiant heat transfer, where the energy from the sun is transferred to your face as infrared radiation.
What is it called when thermal energy is transferred?
kinetic energy
When thermal energy is transferred it is called what?
kinetic energy
What is the process by which thermal energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves?
The process by which thermal energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves is called radiation.
What type of energy does water gain when it sits in the sun?
Water gains thermal energy when it sits in the sun. The sunlight's energy is transferred to the water, causing its temperature to increase. This thermal energy can be used for various purposes such as heating water or generating electricity through solar power.
What is thermal energy that is transferred by open space?
Thermal energy that is transferred through open space is known as radiation. This type of heat transfer does not require a medium, such as air or water, for the energy to travel from a warmer object to a cooler one. An example of this is the heat we receive from the sun.
What do you call thermal energy that is transferred?
Heat.
What is the term for when thermal energy is transferred between two objects?
The term for when thermal energy is transferred between two objects is called heat transfer.
How is thermal energy transferred from the sun to earth?
Thermal energy from the sun reaches the Earth through radiation. The sun emits electromagnetic radiation, including visible light and infrared radiation, which travels through the vacuum of space and heats the Earth's atmosphere and surface upon contact.
What produces thermal energy?
Thermal energy is produced by the vibration and movement of atoms and molecules within an object or substance. This movement generates heat, which is then transferred to other objects through conduction, convection, or radiation. Thermal energy can also be generated through chemical reactions, such as combustion.
A material in which thermal energy is transferred slowly is a?
Material with low thermal conductivity.
