No, heat from the sun is transmitted to the Earth through radiation. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water. In the case of the sun, the heat travels through the vacuum of space to reach the Earth.
No, the heat from the sun reaches Earth through radiation, not convection. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water.
Heat from the sun cannot reach the earth through conduction or convection because space is a vacuum and does not contain matter to transfer heat. Heat from the sun reaches the earth through radiation, as electromagnetic waves travel through the vacuum of space.
False. The heat from the Sun reaches Earth through radiation, not convection. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air and water, while radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
It cannot be transmitted by conduction nor convection because there is no material connection between the sun and the Earth. Conduction and convection need a medium through which to travel, and since the space between the Earth and the Sun is considered a vacuum, they cannot occur. However, radiation does not require a medium through which to travel. It can travel through a vacuum, and therefore space. Therefore, it's the only surviving option for heat transmission.
No, radiation from the sun heats the Earth primarily through the process of absorption of solar radiation by the Earth's surface and atmosphere. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids, such as air and water, but it is not the primary mechanism by which the Earth is heated by solar radiation.
No, the heat from the sun reaches Earth through radiation, not convection. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water.
False. The heat from the sun reaches Earth through radiation, which is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases.

Heat from the sun reaches Earth by radiation. Convection involves air movement, so heat from a forced air furnace would be an example of convection, as would heat in a convection oven which is basically a regular oven with a fan to distribute the heat more evenly.

by 3 wayes:1/Convection Heat from core2/Radiation from the sun
The Sun's heat reaches the Earth through radiation, which is a type of heat transfer where energy is transmitted in the form of electromagnetic waves.

There are other sources of heat in the oceans besides the sun.. Most are underwater magma or gas outlets. However, the majority of heat in the oceans does come from the sun. Heat is necessary for convection to occur. There is a possibility for localized convection due to the alternate heat sources, but most, if not all convection would cease without the sun.
