In the first chapter of his book, Quantum Theory, David Bohm discusses potential energy transfers from empty space to, within, and out of blackbody radiators, where he develops a formula for the total energy in empty space to be the sum of contributions by electric and magnetic fields integrated over all space available to the respective fields.

In the last chapter of the book, Bohm discusses the necessity for both small scale and large scale potentials to interact (quantum with classical), in order "for a specific potentiality to be realized irrevocably at the expense of all other potentialities."

Thus, in empty space, energy transfers would be limited to changes in energy potentials. In theory, particle/anti-particle pairs can be created from vacuum energy, and the particle-pair either recombines and annihilates; or one of the pair can transfer into a black hole, while the other waves along its merry way.

How does theral energy travel through the vacuum between the earth and the sun?

as electromagnetic radiation


Can heat energy travel through space a vacuum by convection?

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 is heat transfer through empty space?

Heat transfer through empty space is known as radiation. It does not require a medium (such as air or water) for heat to travel and can occur in a vacuum. This type of heat transfer is how the sun's energy reaches us on Earth.


What kind ot enerny can go though a emtpy space?

Electromagnetic energy, such as light, can travel through empty space. This is because light does not require a medium, like air or water, to propagate. It can travel through the vacuum of space due to its wave-like nature.


When solar energy travels from the sun through a vacuum of space to the earth?

When solar energy travels from the sun through the vacuum of space to Earth, it does so in the form of electromagnetic radiation, primarily visible light and infrared radiation. This energy is what fuels various natural processes on Earth, such as photosynthesis and warming the planet.

Why can sound energy not travel travel through a vacuum?

Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid, to travel through. In a vacuum, there is no medium for the sound waves to travel through, so the energy cannot propagate. This is why sound energy cannot travel through a vacuum.


What form of of energy energy can travel through a vacuum in space?

Electromagnetic energy, such as light and other forms of radiation, can travel through a vacuum in space due to its ability to propagate without a medium.


What can't energy be transferred through?

Energy cannot be transferred through a vacuum, as it requires a medium such as matter or particles to travel from one point to another. While electromagnetic radiation (such as light) can travel through a vacuum, it is the radiation itself transferring energy, not the vacuum.


Sound waves are unable to travel through?

vacuum because they require a medium to propagate, such as air or water. In a vacuum, there are no particles for the sound waves to interact with and travel through, resulting in silence.


Does radiant energy require a medium through which to travel?

No, radiant energy, such as electromagnetic waves, can travel through a vacuum because it does not require a medium to propagate. This is why electromagnetic energy from the Sun can reach us here on Earth through the vacuum of space.


What is the kind of energy that can travel through different mediums but cannot travel through a vacuum?

You are probably thinking of thermal convection and conduction.


How does a mechanical wave transmit energy through a vacuum?

A mechanical wave cannot transmit energy through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. In a vacuum, there is no medium for the wave to travel through, so it cannot transfer energy.


Which method of thermal energy would be fastest through a vacuum?

Radiation is the fastest method of thermal energy transfer through a vacuum because it does not require a medium for propagation. Radiation can travel through a vacuum at the speed of light.


Is it true or false a mechanical wave transmits energy through a vacuum?

not
