Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction?
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
Heat being transferred from the sun to earth is an example of which process convection expansion radiation or conduction?
radiation
How does conduction convection and radiation work?
Conduction: Heat transfer by direct contact, such as from an electric coil on a stove to the pot. Convection: Heat transfer though the air, such as in an oven. Radiation: Heat transfer via waves, such as from the Sun to Earth.
Does the energy move from earths surface and atmosphere out of space through radiation conduction or convection?
conduction because there is more heat in space then there is in earth
What are 3 types of energy transfer?
The three types of energy transfers are: Conduction, the transfer by energy moving through a solid; Convection, the transfer of energy in a gas or a liquid; and Radiation, the transfer of energy through space. Conduction is how a stove warms the contents of a pan. As the pan heats up, the material inside in contact with the pan gets warm. Convection is what happens when a heater warms the air around it, causing it to rise, which creates lower pressure near the heat source, causing cooler air to flow in. Convection is a result of the differences in density resulting from differences in temperature. Convection does not work in a zero gravity environment. Radiation is how the Sun warms the Earth. Energy travels through empty space until it strikes the Earth, causing it to warm.

What are three ways the earth gets heat?
conduction,convection,radiation
What is one area on earth that best relates to radiation convection and conduction?
Earth's equatorial part relates with maximum radiation convection and conduction as it recives maximum sunlight and hence maximum heat resulting into
How is heat transferred through earth?
heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation.
Which process transfers thermal energy by contact?
This proess is called conduction. The other processes are convection and radiation. Convection is the transfer of energy through movement, such as boiling water. Radiation is the transfer of thermal energy through a medium or space, such as the sun heating the earth.

radiation
What are three ways energy is transferred from earth's surface to the atmosphere?
Conduction, convection and radiation.
What are the factors that help energy from the equator move around the earth?
conduction, convection, radiation
What are the primary ways that the heat energy is transferred through the earth system?
Radiation, Conduction, and Convection.
What are some earth science fair projects?
make pancakes. it shows convection conduction and radiation
