Is it true or false that energy is transferred to the surface of the sun by the processes of radiation and conduction?

It's false because the transfer of energy through matter by direct contact of its particles is conduction.

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoNo. Heat transfer through empty space can only occur through radiation.
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoNo. Convection is movement of liquid or gas caused by variation in density due to temperature differences.

What three processes transfer heat over earths surface?
Convection, radiation, and conduction
How is radiation and conduction alike?
both radiation and conduction give heat to another object.
When you walk on a hot surface heat is transferred to your feet by what?
Radiation
How is energy transferred by conduction and radiation?
Carbon does not transfer via radiation. Carbon can only "conduct" in the sense that it can diffuse through a solid if the temperature is high enough. Carbon can convect in convective models, and the analyses of both heat transfer and mass transfer in solid surface - fluid mediums are *very* similar.
Does heat loss happen more vigorously through conduction than radiation?
Depends on the material itself(for conduction) or it's surface and the temperature(for radiation) - at very high temperatures(like a lightbulb filament), radiation is far more significant then conduction, but a heatsink in a normal PC is doing to be far more dependant on conduction then radiation...
What are three ways energy is transferred from earth's surface to the atmosphere?
Conduction, convection and radiation.

Heat can be transferred by what?
There are three ways in which heat can be transferred from one surface to another. These three ways are conduction, convection and radiation.
How is earth atmosphere warmed evenly?
Energy is transferred between the earths surface and the atmosphere via conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through contact with neighboring molecules.
