When do objects radiate heat?

When their temperature is greater than the temperature of the adjacent zones.


Why black colour absorb and radiate more heat?

Black color absorbs more heat because it absorbs all wavelengths of light, rather than reflecting some like other colors. This absorption leads to an increase in the internal energy of the object, which is perceived as heat. Black bodies also radiate heat more efficiently due to their high absorbance, making them appear to be better at emitting heat compared to lighter colors.


What happens to silver objects with heat and light?

silver absorbs heat just like black objects.


Why does hot objects radiate more heat then cooler objects?

Hot objects radiate more heat than cooler objects because they have higher internal energy due to their higher temperature. This causes them to emit more thermal radiation in the form of heat. The rate of heat radiation increases as the temperature of the object increases, according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law.


The Color That Absorbs The Most Heat.?

Black objects absorb the most heat


What objects can radiate energy?

Objects that can radiate energy include stars, light bulbs, heated coils, and the Earth's surface. The type of radiation (such as heat, light, or electromagnetic waves) emitted by an object depends on its temperature and composition.


What kind of objects radiate heat?

x rays


Why does a black can cool down faster than a white can?

The reason something looks black to us is because it reflects less light - therefore, the light is absorbed. The energy of the absorbed light, of course, heats the object up. Please note that black objects also tend to emit thermal radiation faster - so if there is no sunlight, they will get cold faster.


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

Heat doesn't travel through a vacuum. The energy could be changed to light and radiate across the gap, so that would be radiation.


How much heat do humans radiate?

On average, humans radiate about 100 watts of heat energy.


Why can you see objects placed under a heat lamp which emits infrared radiation?

You can see objects placed under a heat lamp that emits infrared radiation because some of the energy from the infrared radiation is absorbed by the objects, causing them to increase in temperature. As the temperature of the objects increases, they radiate heat in the visible spectrum, allowing you to see them.


Do all things radiate?

Yes, all objects radiate some heat BUT the hotter the object, the more heat it radiates!! radiation its self is not hot but when it is absorbed by an object its particles in the object move more rapidly thus heating it
