the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
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.
heat is the cause in the increase in thermal energy. the sun also causes it one the earth, because the heat from the sun projects light in a beam onto the earth and heats up the earth.
Yes the sun does produce thermal energy.
No! Convection would require a medium and there is none such between the sun and the earth - just vacuum.
By the process of Radiation
the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
Sun provides heat to earth's surface. It provides thermal energy to the earth.

The sun transfer heat through radiationAnswer'Heat' is not transferred. Rather, 'heat' describes the process of transferring energy. So, your question should read, 'How does the sun transfer energy to earth?", and the answer is by radiation.
It is transferred by the energy of photons and heat radiation. Convection doesnt work as there is vacuum between sun and earth.

the sun transfer the heat to earth by radiation of heat
Electromagnetic waves, or radiation.
The sun produces energy via nuclear fusion. Electromagnetic energy in the form of light travels through the vacuum of space to reach earth via what we call radiation.
No. Convection requires a medium to carry thermal energy from one place to another. There is no or not enough of any material in space to accomplish this. Radiation will carry thermal energy from the sun to the Earth.
