Want this question answered?
the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
Of the three types of heat transfer; Conduction, Convection and Radiation - only radiation (or electromagnetic radiation) is received directly from the sun by earth (though it may get converted once it arrives at Earth). This is due to space being a Vacuum, so convection and conduction don't carry the suns energy. Addition: The sun transfers gravitational energy E = -meGMs/r, to the earth.
Electromagnetic waves
Lightning is a form of electromagnetic energy. It is a massive electrostatic discharge of light particles between the atmosphere and the Earth.
Energy, from the sun, reaches us in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
the sun transfer the heat to earth by radiation of heat
where does the radient energy transmitted to earth come from
The energy from the Sun is transferred via electromagnetic waves to the Earth. These e-m waves may travel in a vacuum, and do so essentially at the speed of light.
Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through space by electromagnetic radiation. Most of the electromagnetic radiation that comes to the earth from the sun is invisible. ... In electromagnetic radiation, its frequency is the number of electromagnetic waves moving past a point each second.
radar;radar means :the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves.
the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
The sun's energy, which supports life, is transmitted to Earth in the form of?
Transferring energy through empty space is called radiation. There are three types of energy transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. Radiation is the only energy transfer that does not require a medium. Radiation is a wave of pure energy; one example of radiation is the sunlight that reaches Earth, which is electromagnetic radiation.
Radiation if that's the answer you're looking for... Radiation is the transfer of heat by electromagnetic waves (or light energy) traveling through space (but not outer space, just space like in the air).
the energy transferred to the earth is called, electromagnetic radiation.
Energy from the sun to Earth travels as electromagnetic energy, or light energy.
The Sun's energy is transmitted by electromagnetic radiation, with most of the heat caused by ultraviolet radiation striking the Earth's surface. This heat is re-radiated by infrared radiation.
