the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
Very simply, you can "see" the sun or feel the sun's warmth. Both of these tell you that solar energy from the sun has transferred to earth.
No! Convection would require a medium and there is none such between the sun and the earth - just vacuum.
By the sun
The sun transfers energy to earth gravitationally and electrically. Energy Gravitationally = - GmeMs/r, Electric Power is transferred by Solar flux S= 4/3 Kwatts/m^2. This produces around 88E21 Joules per day.
No, solar energy and solar cells are not the same, although sometimes people do use the phrases as though they were interchangable. Solar energy is energy that is transferred from the sun to the earth. Solar cells are devices that turn energy from the sun into photovoltaic energy that we can use.

It is transferred by the energy of photons and heat radiation. Convection doesnt work as there is vacuum between sun and earth.

Electromagnetic waves, or radiation.
heat transfer
By the sun
By radiation: mainly in the infrared wavelengths.
heat energy transferred by earths atmosphere by the sun
Energy can be transferred from one location to another as in the sun's energy travels through space to Earth. The two ways that energy can be transferred are by doing work and heat transfer. Also energy can be transferred from one object to another.
The sun transfer heat through radiationAnswer'Heat' is not transferred. Rather, 'heat' describes the process of transferring energy. So, your question should read, 'How does the sun transfer energy to earth?", and the answer is by radiation.
Energy is transferred by Gravity(-meMsG/r + mecV)) and Electricity (qeQszc/4pi r).
