Radiation just means light, but in all frequencies (instead of just the ones we can see with our eyes). The sun emits radiation as a biproduct (side effect) of fusion. I am not patient enough to try and explain fusion:) Wiki it

Why does the Sun radiate the Earth?
The Sun emits its radiations in all directions, not specifically towards Earth. Some of the radiation just happens to come in this direction.
Does heat travel through a vacuum?
Actually heat cannot travel through vacuum. sun emits radiations (obviously electromagnetic radiations.) which needs no medium to travel. hence these radiations travel through space and reaches earth where it interacts with atmosphere. when these radiations fall on media like air, water land etc. the radiation is converted into heat energy. Thus it is clear that heat from sun is converted into radiations which travel through space and reaches earth where it is converted to light.
What does uranium emits while it breaks down?
Fission fragments, neutrons, gamma radiations; and all the radiations emitted by these fission fragments.
Principle of Spontaneous emission and stimulated emission?
How the nucleus emits radiations spontaneously?
Does helium absorb uv?
Yes, it does. It re-emits infrared radiations. This is related to atomic spectra.
Can staring at a super moon cause a person to go blind?
Moon gets the energy from sun. Moon does not emits the ionizing radiations. So you can enjoy the super moon with out any problem to your eye sight.
Which layer protects earth from dangerous ultra violet radiations of the sun?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
The sun emits its greatest intensity of radiation in?
The sun emits its greatest intensity of radiation in a spectral region. The spectral region the sun's radiation emits to is the visible region of the spectrum.
Which layer of the earths atmosphere protectsthe earth from these ultra violet radiations of the sun?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
Which layer of earth's atmosphere protests earth from dangerous ultraviolet radiations of sun?
Ozone layer protects us from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. It filters out these harmful radiations. It is present in stratosphere.
Why do galaxies emit radiations?
Because galaxies include stars, clouds of hot gas, and free charged particles sailing through magnetic fields, and each of those emits radiations.
What emits radioactive material as it gets older?
The type of radiations remain the same during time for a specific isotope.
