What else can I help you with?
Is the sun convection or conduction?
The sun heats up through a process called convection, where energy is transferred through the movement of hot gases. The energy generated at the sun's core travels outward through convection currents in the outer layers of the sun.
Is a sun a conduction convection or radiation?
The sun primarily transfers energy through radiation. Energy from the sun is released in the form of electromagnetic waves, which travel through the vacuum of space to reach the Earth. Convection and conduction processes occur within the sun itself, as part of its internal energy distribution.
The heat from the sun reaches Earth through convection true or false?
False. The heat from the sun reaches Earth through radiation, which is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases.
Is it true the heat from the sun reaches earth through convection?
No, the heat from the sun reaches Earth through radiation, not convection. Radiation is the transfer of heat energy through electromagnetic waves, while convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water.
Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction.?
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
Does Energy from the Sun is transferred to Earth through convection?
No! Convection would require a medium and there is none such between the sun and the earth - just vacuum.
How is energy transferred from the core to the surface of sun by convection?
By convection
Why does the energy from the sun travel to Earth by radiation instead of by convection or conduction?
Energy from the sun travels to Earth by radiation because space is a vacuum and there is no medium for convection or conduction to occur. Radiation is the most efficient way for heat to transfer through the vacuum of space.
Does the Energy from the core of the Sun first travel slowly through the convection zone and then much faster through the radiation zone?
No
What does the convection zone of the sun surround?
The convection zone of the sun surrounds the radiative zone, which is the region where energy generated by nuclear fusion in the core is transported outwards through the slow process of radiative diffusion. In the convection zone, energy is transported by the movement of hot plasma, creating convection currents.
Is energy through sun transerred to earth through convection?
NO! Radiation. In order for convection to serve there would have to be a heat conducting medium all the way from the sun to the Earth and the Ether theory was proven wrong a life-time ago.
How is energy from the core of the sun transmitted to the photosphere?
Energy from the core of the sun is transmitted through a process called radiative and convective heat transfer. In the radiative zone, energy is transported by photons through radiation. In the convective zone, energy is carried by circulating currents of hot plasma rising and cooler plasma sinking, a process known as convection. This energy eventually reaches the photosphere, where it is emitted as sunlight.
