No. There is also the transfer of mass. All matter contains energy, thus the movement of mass in vacuum is another method of energy transfer. However, for transferring thermal energy, radiation is the only method that can take place inside a vacuum as it doesn't need particles to travel through where as conduction and convection do.

∙ 15y agoYes. Light and electromagnetic radiation (like radio waves) can travel in a vacuum. Sound waves, which require air to travel, cannot.

∙ 12y agoI believe the answer you're looking for is radiation type energy,
but note that gravitational energy is also transferred in a vacuum.

True or false radiation is the only method of energy transfer that can take place in a vacuum?
if there is radiation in the vacuum, then it's not really a vacuum.
Can heat transfer take place through Radiation in vacuum?
A vacuum motor can generate heat, which is transferred through radiating patterns, mostly.answer 2 heat can transfer by conduction, radiation, and convection (a special case of conduction).Heat can travel through a vacuum by radiation. I hope the sun felt warm at your place today.
What is the method of heat transfer that can take place of two objects at different tempurtures are placed without touching each other in a vacuum?
the anwer would be radiation
Can radiation happen in a vacuum?
Yes. Both nuclear radiation and electromagnetic radiation such as light can happen in a vacuum.
Why can radiation travel in a vacuum?
yes as radiation travels from the sun through a vacuum to earth

Heat transfer by radiation is the only method of heat transfer that can travel through a vacuum. What is a vacuum?
A vacuum is a space where there is no, or very little matter (ex. air molecules). One example of a vacuum is outer space. Because there is no matter for heat to travel through via convection or conduction, radiation is the only heat transfer that can take place in a vacuum.
Which method of heat transfer can take place if two objects at different temperatures are place if two objects at different tempertaures are placedwithout touching each other in a vacuum?
Radiation.

yes as radiation travels from the sun through a vacuum to earth
How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?
Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.
Can radiation travel through a vacuum?
Yeah, radiation can travel in vacuum and a practical example of it is the radiation of sun coming to earth and traveling through space.
What is the only way heat travels through a vacuum?
by radiation - convection and conduction cannot occur in a vacuum!
Is radiation present in a vacuum?
yes
