A vacuum motor can generate heat, which is transferred through radiating patterns, mostly.

answer 2 heat can transfer by conduction, radiation, and convection (a special case of conduction).

Heat can travel through a vacuum by radiation. I hope the sun felt warm at your place today.

Heat transfer by radiation is the only method of heat transfer that can travel through a vacuum. What is a vacuum?

A vacuum is a space where there is no, or very little matter (ex. air molecules). One example of a vacuum is outer space. Because there is no matter for heat to travel through via convection or conduction, radiation is the only heat transfer that can take place in a vacuum.


Which energy transfer can take place with little or no matter present?

The type of energy transfer that can take place with little or no matter present is radiation.


Can radiation take place in a vacuum?

Yes, radiation can take place in a vacuum. Radiation is the transfer of energy in the form of electromagnetic waves or particles. In a vacuum, there is no medium for conduction or convection, but radiation can still occur as it does not require a medium to propagate. This is why we receive heat from the sun despite the vacuum of space between us.


True or false radiation is the only method of energy transfer that can take place in a vacuum?

False. While radiation is one method of energy transfer that can occur in a vacuum, conduction and convection are two other methods of energy transfer that do not require a medium and can also occur in a vacuum.


In a vacuum there is no matter . do you think conduction can take place in vacuum?

Conduction cannot occur within a vacuum because it requires a substrate (i.e. matter) for energy to be transferred.


How is heat transfer by radiation different form heat transfer by convection and conduction?

Radiation requires neither contact (through which conduction transfers heat) nor mass flow or movement (through which convection transfers heat). Only radiation can take place in a vacuum. Convection and conduction both require a material medium for the heat transfer to occur. Only radiation can transfer thermal energy through the vacuum of space.


Why conduction can't occur in a vacuum?

Conduction requires the presence of a medium such as solid, liquid, or gas for heat transfer to occur. In a vacuum, there are no particles to transfer heat energy through collisions, so conduction cannot take place. Heat can only be transferred in a vacuum through radiation.


What is needed for conduction and convection to take place but not radiation?

Conduction and convection require a medium, such as solids or fluids, to transfer heat through direct contact or movement. Radiation, on the other hand, can occur in a vacuum or through empty space as electromagnetic waves. So, for conduction and convection to take place but not radiation, a medium for heat transfer is necessary.


Which method of heat transfer can take place if two objects at different temperatures are placed without touching each other in a vaccum placed?

radiation, i think


How do radiation and conduction compare o each other?

Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, while conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials. Radiation can occur even in a vacuum, whereas conduction requires a medium for heat transfer to take place. Radiation is not affected by the medium's conductivity, but conduction is dependent on the material's ability to conduct heat.


Identify and diferentiate the different methods of heat transfer?

The main methods of heat transfer are conduction (transfer through direct contact of particles), convection (transfer through fluid movement), and radiation (transfer through electromagnetic waves). Conduction occurs in solids, convection in fluids like air and water, and radiation can take place in a vacuum. Each method has different mechanisms of transferring heat energy.


What is the transfer of heat through energy waves called?

Transfer of heat energy through energy waves is called radiation.
