Heat flow through empty space occurs through radiation?

Yes, heat transfer through empty space can occur through electromagnetic radiation. This type of heat transfer is known as thermal radiation and does not require a medium for propagation, unlike conduction or convection. It is how the Sun's heat reaches the Earth.


If you leave the fridge in your kitchen open for 10 minutes after an hour is the room warmer or colder than it would have been had you not?

Warmer. A fridge works by transfering heat from inside the fridge to the coils out the back of the fridge. Leaving the door open is the same as pulling water out the bottom of a water cooler and pouring it back in the top. The transfering of heat cancels itself out. The fridge will stay running longer trying to keep the inside cold when the door is left open. This extra running time from the motor is the major source of the added heat to the room.


What does a an insulator resists?

An insulator resists the flow of electrical current. It does not allow the movement of electrons easily, helping to prevent the loss of energy through heat. Insulators are commonly used to protect against electrical shock and to prevent electrical interference between components.

When heat is added, it is called heat absorption or heat gain. When heat is subtracted, it is called heat release or heat loss.
