The energy from the Sun arrives through the process of radiation what forms of energy can be transferred through radiation?
radiant energy
When a mineral spontaneously decays into subatomic particles?
Radioactive decay is the process through which unstable atoms disintegrate and emit radiation until they attain a stable configuration. New elements with reduced atomic number are formed.
What is the process where heat is transferred through glass?
radiation
Which is the transfer of energy as waves moving through space?
Radiation
When you feel the warmth of the sun on your face what type of heat transfer are you experiencing?
It is known as Radiation. The Energy from the sun that warms up your face is a process called Radiation, because it WONT be convection because Convection only transfers through a Liquid or gas, and it WONT be conduction because for conduction to process you actually have to touch it and RADIATION IS YOUR ANSWER BECAUSE RADIATION IS THE PROCESS THAT MOVES THROUGH EMPTY SPACE.
Process which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called?
This process through which unstable nuclei emit radiation is called radioactive decay. It also is called nuclear decay, and it is a natural process in which an atom of an isotope decomposes into a new element.

By which process does starlight travel through space?
Radiation
What is the process by which an element slowly decays over time?
It is through radioactive decay that a quantity of an unstable element will decay over time. A material that is unstable will undergo this process, and the sample is said to be radioactive.
How is heat trans fered from the sun to the earth?
Through the process of radiation.
The main process by which heat flows upward through the lithosphere is?
Radiation
What do radiation do?
During radiation, energy is emitted from a source and propagated through the surrounding medium, or the energy involved in this process.
Which is the transfer of energy as waves moving through space?
Radiation
Can entropy decrease during a process?
in general entropy will not decrease in a spontaneous process since spontaneous process are all irreversible ones. entropy can be reversed only through an reversible process by an ideal engine but it is impossible to create such an engine by violating second law of thermodynamics. hence entropy cannot be decreased practically
