No... radiation is the movement of waves and particles, and influence of movement upon all other matter around it or in it's path... What happens though, is that it causes (excellerates) the atoms in any material it encounters (and that material becomes hot, the greater the radiation, the greater and more violently it will be heated)...

What is similar to heat radiation?
We know that infrared radiation can transfer thermal energy (heat) from one place to another.
If you put your hand over a stove is that radiation?
No that is just a hand over the stove. If the stove element is turned on and you place your hand close to the element you will feel heat. This is heat radiation, the same as when you feel the heat from the sun, also heat radiation.
How do heat transfers by radiation?
Heat transfer by radiation occurs in the infra-red part of the electromagnetic wave spectrum, because matter emits and absorbs radiation with that range of frequencies.
How does the sun provide heat?
radiation
What is the methods of heat transfer?
Heat can be transferred in 3 ways: Conduction, or through direct contact, Convection, or transfer of heat through a fluid, or Radiation, or heat transfer through space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Is heat radiation called infrared radiation?
yes, heat radiation is called infrared radiation
Another name for heat radiation?
INFRARED RADIATION is also referred to as Heat Radiation.
Can Ultra violet radiation can be felt as heat?
No. It is infrared radiation that can be felt as heat.
Why is radiation of heat larger in a black surface than a white surface?
A black surface absorbs the heat radiation and a white surface reflects the heat radiation
What is an example of transferring heat through radiation?
The earth receives heat from the sun as radiation
How can heat produced using radiation?
Heat is both radiation and the vibration of atoms/molecules.
How is heat transferred through space?
heat is transfered through space by radiation.
What is a radiation heat?
Radiation heat is heat that comes directly off its source in a straight line. For example heat coming off the sun.
how is heat transmitted by radiation?
Radiation is a method of heat transfer that does not rely upon any contact between the heat source and the heated object as is the case with conduction and convection. Heat can be transmitted through empty space by thermal radiation often called infrared radiation. This is a type electromagnetic radiation .
Does thermal radiation mean heat radiation?
Yes, it does.
Which radiation can be felt as heat?
Infra-red radiation.
What is radiation in water cycle?
the radiation is the suns heat
