Heat energy can be transferred from a source to a receiver by conduction, convection, and radiation.
Describe the method by which energy is transferred from earth's surface to the air above it?
Its because of convection. Which is caused by a solid liquid or gas as the temperature changes. Love: H.C.S:)
How is energy transferred when an instant cold pack is put on a muscle injury?
Heat energy is transferred by conduction from the muscle to the cold pack.
How can a convection current transfer energy around the globe?
-- The sun's energy doesn't really need to be transferred "around the globe",because every point on the globe is on a direct line of sight from the sun forexactly 50% of the time.-- Solar energy is transferred from place to place, however, by the large-scalemotions of heated and cooled air masses, referred to technically as "wind".
How is thermal energy transferred on Earth's surface?
By the hydrosphere.
When Earth cools most of the energy transferred from the Earth's surface to space is transferred by the process of?

Radiation
How is energy transferred from the core to the surface of sun by convection?
By convection
A situation where energy is transferred from one place to another?
-- Sound energy is transferred from the bell of the trumpet to the inner-ears of everybody at the concert. -- Seismic energy is transferred from the subterranean motion along the fault to the surface, and eventually to the walls of any nearby structures. -- Electrical energy is transferred from the nuclear power plant to the coils in my toaster. -- Radio-frequency energy is transferred from the sector antenna on the monopole down to my cellphone. -- Light energy is transferred from the phosphor on the inside surface of my TV screen, to the rear inside surface of my eye. -- The energy from the pitcher's shoulder muscles is transferred, by the ball, to the pocket of the catcher's mitt. -- The electromagnetic energy generated by the nuclear processes in the sun's interior is transferred through space. A tiny fraction of it is intercepted by the earth, and sustains all life that we know of.
How is thermal energy transferred in the atmosphere?
From the surface, it would be via convection currents
How do earthquakes and volcanoes transfer energy from earth's interior to the surface?
During a volcano eruption, theheat energy is transferred through lava to the surface of Earth. The magma may come up to the surface as magma bringing heat energy to the surface.
What are three ways energy is transferred from earth's surface to the atmosphere?
Conduction, convection and radiation.
What surface would result in the largest amount of kinetic energy transferred into heat?
The surfaces of a brake pad.
What is transferred from organism to organism in a food chain?
energy is transferred from on animal to the other animal. Because energy can't be destroyed only transferred
How is most thermal energy in the atmosphere transfered?
From the surface, it would be via convection currents
