Do all things radiate?

Yes, all objects radiate some heat BUT the hotter the object, the more heat it radiates!! radiation its self is not hot but when it is absorbed by an object its particles in the object move more rapidly thus heating it


Why black colour absorb and radiate more heat?

The objects is black when no light reflect from it, hence, it absorb light very well. And at the same time, what can absorb light very well would radiate heat very well .


Do dark rocks absorb more heat than light rocks?

Dark rocks will absorb more radiant heat than light rocks, for the same reason that any dark object absorbs more heat than an equivalent light object. Light objects appear "light" to us because they reflect more light than objects which appear dark. Dark objects appear dark because they absorb more light and reflect less. However, dark objects will radiate more heat that light objects. Actually, dark rocks do NOT absorb more radiant heat than light rocks. Nor do they radiate more heat than light rocks. Dark rocks DO absorb more LIGHT than light rocks and they then radiate this light at heat. Light rocks reflect the light rather than absorb it and therefore do not radiate as much heat. If you put a light rock and a dark rock next to a HEAT source, the amount of heat absorbed will be related to the makeup of the material rather than to the color.


Do all objects radiate?

no...


Which method of heat transfer can take place if two objects at different temperatures are placed without touching each other in a vacuum?

Heat doesn't travel through a vacuum. The energy could be changed to light and radiate across the gap, so that would be radiation.


Why do light colored objects feel cooler than dark colored objects?

Because dark colours absorbs light/heat, while light colours reflect light/heat.
