The Sun's energy is given out mainly as "electromagnetic radiation".

Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation.

Heat is the main form the Sun's energy has when it reaches Earth, particularly

the Earth's surface.

The amount of the suns energy that reaches earth at a given time and place is?

The amount of the sun's energy that reaches Earth at a given time and place depends on factors such as the angle of incidence, atmospheric conditions, and geographic location.

Why can you feel the suns heat when there is no air between the sun and the earth?

The sun's heat reaches the Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation, which can travel through the vacuum of space. When this radiation reaches Earth, it gets absorbed by the atmosphere and the Earth's surface, warming it up. This is why you can feel the sun's heat even though there is no air between the sun and the Earth.
