Radiation does not need any material medium to transfer energy where as the other two conduction and convection need a material medium to perform.

How was radiation fundamentally different from conduction and convection how is radiation fundamentally different from conduction and convection?

Radiation differs from conduction and convection in that it does not require a medium to transfer thermal energy. Conduction transfers heat through direct contact between materials, while convection involves transferring heat through the movement of a fluid. Radiation can occur in a vacuum and does not rely on the movement of particles.


What are the three forms of heat transfer?

The three forms of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact of particles, convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids or gases, and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.


What are the 3 ways for movement of heat?

Heat can be transfered by convection, radiation, or conduction.


What are the three major ways of heat transfer?

The three major ways of heat transfer are conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact of materials, convection is the transfer of heat through movement of fluids (liquids or gases), and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.


How is radiation different from conduction or convection?

Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves, while conduction is the transfer of heat through a solid material, and convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids. Radiation does not require a medium to transfer heat, while conduction and convection do.
