How is energy transferred by solids liquids gases and vacuum?

In solids, energy is transferred through vibrations of particles called phonons. In liquids, energy is transferred by the movement of particles through convection and diffusion. In gases, energy is transferred mainly through collisions between gas molecules. In a vacuum, energy is transferred through electromagnetic radiation.


The energy that is transferred by electromagnetic waves is called?

The energy that is transferred by electromagnetic waves is called radiant energy.


What are the two ways energy is transferred to absorbers?

Energy can be transferred to absorbers through radiation, where energy is emitted in the form of electromagnetic waves, such as light. Energy can also be transferred through conduction, where heat is directly transferred through physical contact between objects of different temperatures.


In what 3 ways can energy be transferred?

Energy can be transferred through conduction, where heat is transferred through direct contact between materials. It can also be transferred through convection, where heat is transferred through the movement of fluids. Lastly, energy can be transferred through radiation, where heat is emitted as electromagnetic waves.


Explain how thermal energy is transferred by radiation?

Thermal energy is transferred by radiation through electromagnetic waves emitted by a warmer object and absorbed by a cooler one. Unlike conduction or convection, radiation does not require a medium to transfer heat and can occur in a vacuum. The amount of thermal energy transferred by radiation depends on the temperature of the objects and their surface properties.
