All radiant energy travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Radiant energy is most commonly known as light energy.
Light rays are a form of radiant energy. Light rays are the visible light region from around 400 - 700 nm. All types of electromagnetic radiation are radiant energy.
Light energy refers specifically to the visible spectrum of electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye, while radiant energy is a broader term that encompasses all forms of electromagnetic radiation, including light as well as non-visible forms such as infrared, ultraviolet, and radio waves. Essentially, light energy is a subset of radiant energy.
Yes, all of those examples involve radiant energy. Lightning is a natural form of radiant energy, the stove transfers radiant heat to the pot of water, a television emits radiation in the form of light and sound, and sunlight is a primary source of radiant energy for the Earth.

The chief source of radiant energy is the sun. The sun is responsible for practically all energy on our planet. Geothermal (heat from under the earth) is the only exception.

Radiant energy is a term that is almost exclusively used for electromagnetic energy. When something is hot, it emits radiant energy. The sun is an obvious example, but all object actually emit radiant energy. The hotter the object, the more energy. Sound does carry energy, but it is not electromagnetic. Objects can emit sound and even "radiate" sound, but the term radiant energy is not normally used for sound.

Yes, radiant energy spreads out from its source in all directions. This is because it emanates as electromagnetic waves that propagate through space in all directions, radiating energy uniformly outward from the source.
Radiant energy is the energy of electromagnetic waves. The quantity of radiant energy may be calculated by integrating radiant flux (or power) with respect to time and, like all forms of energy, its SI unit is the joule. The term is used particularly when radiation is emitted by a source into the surrounding environment. Radiant energy may be visible or invisible to the human eye.
