Answer: Radiation
This includes visible light, gamma rays, UV rays and other waves. They can be seen in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What we perceive as light are actually electromagnetic waves. So to answer your question, the light emitted from the sun is energy.
invisble light only
sound
electromagnetic radiation
The sun produces energy via nuclear fusion. Electromagnetic energy in the form of light travels through the vacuum of space to reach earth via what we call radiation.
The energy from the sun enters the atmsphere as radiation. This radiation is tranmited to the earth in the form of short waves of radiation. These waves hit the ground.Through radiation.
The energy from the Sun is solar energy.
Since we are talking about warming, what you are looking for is heat or more properly thermal energy, But there is a problem as thermal energy cannot travel through empty space as this form of energy is defined in terms of the vibrations of matter at the atomic/molecular level.What travels through empty space and when it arrives on earth produces these vibrations in matter that will warm the earth is electromagnetic radiation, primarily radiation in the infrared and visible light bands. The energy in this radiation is electromagnetic in nature and is cyclicly exchanged back and forth between the electric and magnetic fields of the wave.
tidal
electromagnetic radiation
They travels in the form of waves and are filtered through the Earth's atmosphere.
Raidiation
Raidiation
Electromagnetic waves
in the form of body waves known as p (compressional waves) and s waves (shear waves). the energy of the earth quake also produces surface waves which have long amplitudes and short frequencies causing them to be extremely destructive
Sound is a form energy that travels to us through compressional (or longitudinal) waves.
The seismic or shock energy that travels through Earth away from an earthquake is a form of mechanical energy. Mechanical energy applies force to materials. That's what seismic energy does in moving rocks in the earth's crust.
Heat travels from the Sun to the Earth in waves. These waves are part of the solar radiation process.
