What is the method of transfer that does not require contact?
I assume you mean heat transfer. The answer is radiation.
What is radiation used for?
radiation is used for many things such as medicines, sterilizing foods, generalisationin electricity and heat, many industrial uses and many many more=====(such as seeing things, using the radio, watching TV, operating GPS, using acellphone, taking an X-ray of your teeth, getting a CT or MRI when you're hurt,toasting bread, getting a nice tan, taking a photo, looking at the moon, etc.)I'm going to assume that you mean ionizing radiation. Off the top of my head, major non-research uses include:- Diagnostics (e.g. medical imaging, materials inspection, etc.)- Sterilization (e.g. irradiated foods, irradiated seeds, etc.)- Sensors (e.g. smoke detectors, thickness gauges, etc.)electromagnetic radiation allows me to listen to the radio; heat radiation makes me warm at the beach; sound radiation carries your speech to me; ionizing radiation allows the sterilization of hospital supplies.
What happenes to the temperature as the sun s radiant energy toughes it?
I will assume that by "toughes" you mean "touches". However, you still need to clarify what you mean with "it". In general, if radiant energy falls on an object, the tendency is for the object to heat up. However, objects will also emit radiation, at the same time they receive radiation, and it's entirely possible for an object to lose energy faster than it receives energy from sunlight.
How do you explain why colors are reflected by an object that appears black?
I would assume it would be because of iridescence of the object. Some things, such as crow feathers, can appear to be bluish or greenish, either because of light or the physical properties of the object.
When you get cold while your swimming does your body lose heat from conduction convection radiation or reflction?
"Reflction" (I assume you mean "reflection") isn't really a way to lose heat. Convection is really only important within a body; it's largely irrelevant when talking about heat transfer from one distinct body (you) to another (the water). There may well be convection in the water, but that has only a secondary impact on you and how cold you are.That leaves radiation and conduction. Both of these processes are going on, but of the two, conduction is by far the more significant in this particular case.
Does electromagnetic radiation has mass and charge?
have, not has, and I would assume that it has electrons to be electromagnetic radiation, and therefore mass
Why scientists assume that experimental results can be reproduced reproduced?
Scientists assume that experimental results can be reproduced because they follow very specific steps when conducting experiments. These guidelines are known as the scientific method, and is designed so that experiments can be easily repeated and retested.
What are explanation based on many observations that are supported by experimental results?
i would assume it is known as a solution
What is the method of transfer that does not require contact?
I assume you mean heat transfer. The answer is radiation.

Why isn't Atomic Betty on Teletoon anymore in 2011?
Too much radiation I would assume.
How quantum theory explain black body radiation curves?
By "curve" I assume you mean "spectrum." If you assume that electro-magnetic (EM) energy -- ie, "light" -- can exist in any size, then the spectrum of a glowing "black body" is impossible to explain. If you make the (now simple, but, at the time, almost un-thinkable) assumption that EM energy can only exist in certain "chunks," and that the size of these chunks depends on the frequency of the EM wave, then the spectrum is quite easy to explain. Max Planck called these chunks of light "quanta," and eventually they were called "photons." It so happens that other phenomena we observe are similar: easy to explain with photons, impossible to explain without them.
What is a blue glow generated by a muon as its speeds through ice?
(Note: the original question had "moon"; I assume that was a typo.) Cherenkov radiation.
What is an object in space that has a grvitational pull so strong that light cannot escape?
By invisible i assume you mean that the object does not emit electromagnetic radiation. In which case your answer is dark matter. Or potentially black holes (if you ignore the possibility of Hawking radiation).
Why experimental runs are randomized?
To allow for the minimization of systematic error. With randomized runs, and a large enough sample size, you generally can assume that your normally distributed error terms sum to zero.
Did Josef Mengele enjoy torturing people?
One would assume so. He did many experimental surgeries without any medicine for the "patient", and he did many selections when new prisoners arrived.
Can you linearly extrapolate the results of a high dose of radiation to determine the effects of a low dose of the same radiation?
Simple answer, no one knows. Regulatory authorities assume that radiation doses follow a linear plot based on cases of high dose exposure alone, and do extrapolate down to zero, because there is little to no information of effects of low doses, and they have to assume something (they cannot simply ignore low doses, so they assume the worst). Currently, all knowledge of radiation and it's effects comes from relatively high doses, i.e. from accidents like Chernobyl, since you can't actually experiment to see what happens, and low dose effects are very long term and any conditions the do later develop cannot be specifically assigned to low dose radiation exposure conclusively. However, there is some study on a principle called radiation hormesis that suggests that low doses in addition to the natural background are actually beneficial.
