Light energy travels in the form of?
They travels in the form of waves and are filtered through the Earth's atmosphere.
What type of energy transfer that can occur in empty space is?
Electromagnetic energy can propogate through a vacuum, so energy transfer can occur in the form of light, heat, x rays, gamma rays, gamma rays etc.
How are direct rays different from indirect rays?
direct rays are from the sun and indirect rays are from something else, like it was reflected or something(ex:the moon. It bounces the sun's rays) AKT♥
Can UV rays go through wax paper?
yes, but it drastically reduces them
How do raidiators in homes transfer heat?
Radiators transfer heat by electromagnetic waves. The sun waves/rays send electromagnetic waves.
What form of energy is travels through space?
Radiated energy of: light heat radio microwaves x-rays cosmic rays gamma rays and so on.
What form of energy travels through space?
Radiated energy of: light heat radio microwaves x-rays cosmic rays gamma rays and so on.
What type of energy are radio waves visible light from the sun infrared rays from heat lamps the waves that heat food in a microwave oven ultraviolet rays and X-rays?
the answer is electromagnetic energy and visible light is an example it is a form of energy that travels through space as waves.
What is radiation that travels to Earth from the sun?
Electromagnetic radiation (heat, light, UV, X rays) mainly.
How does heat from the sun reach you?
Heat from the sun reaches you from radiation.
How does the ocean absorb heat?
The ocean absorbs heat through the suns rays
Heat given off by a fire in a fireplace is an example of - A conduction B Convection C radiation D insolation?
Radiation. Conduction is when one object takes heat from an object adjacent to it, like your hand on a hot plate. Convection is when heat travels through a gas or a liquid to get from one place to another, like a hair dryer to your hair. And Radiation is when heat travels through rays like the sun or a flame. Based on technicalities regarding the question, the flame can heat the surrounding air and travel to you, thus being a convection current.
What is energy that travels across distance in the form of EM waves?
"EM" stands for "electromagnetic" waves, a broad description that includes radio, microwave, heat, light, gamma rays and cosmic rays.
Light energy travels in the form of?
They travels in the form of waves and are filtered through the Earth's atmosphere.
How does light travel under sea?
Light travels under the sea through rays of sunshine that hit the water. Light only travels a few feet under the sea.
How does heat travel through your home?
Heat energy travels in three ways: convection, radiation, and conduction. The radiation from the sun heats the air around the house, making the walls warm. Than, the walls warm up the air inside the house. The sun rays go through the windows, which will trap heat. The heated air will rise, and stay there unless there is an escape route for it.
What travels faster through space visible light or ultraviolet rays?
neither, both travel at the same speed: c
