Most of the energy generated by the Sun travels to Earth as Electromagnetic Radiation. A very tiny amount of energy of the Sun is given off as particles, mostly electrons and protons, flying off into space.
Electromagnetic energy is, of course, light. The light energy from the Sun includes the visible spectrum we can see and much more in the infrared part of the spectrum that we can not see and a little in the ultraviolet as well. It all travels at the speed of light from the Sun outwards and a tiny fraction of the Sun's energy strikes the Earth and is absorbed. As a result, the electromagnetic energy is converted to thermal (heat) energy and keeps Earth warm.
as electromagnetic radiation
Light waves travel from sun to the earth.
Energy from the sun reaches the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of visible light. This light travels through the vacuum of space and reaches the Earth's atmosphere, where it is absorbed and converted into heat energy.
That doesn't make any sense. If you ment, 1. "Does the sun travel around the earth?" or 2. "Does the earth travel around the sun?" The answer is 2.
Light from the Sun contains energy in the form of electromagnetic waves. These waves travel through space and reach Earth, where they provide energy for various processes such as photosynthesis, heating the atmosphere, and driving the Earth's climate system.
Energy from the sun to Earth travels as electromagnetic energy, or light energy.
It is done by radiation.
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
Electromagnetic radiation... i.e., light. Electromagnetic Waves A+
The sun gives its energy to the Earth through electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of sunlight. Gravity doesn't play a direct role in the transfer of energy from the sun to the Earth. Space may be a vacuum, but light and energy can still travel through it.
RadiationHeat can't travel through a vacuum, directly, so the sun emits energy as light. The earth receives about a two billionth of the sunlight emitted, but the light is converted to heat and other energy forms.
Light from the sun travels to Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
true
as electromagnetic radiation
Energy from the sun travels to the earth's surface is brought here by electromagnetic radiation. Once the radiation reaches the planet, most of it is converted to heat.
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.
