Is ultraviolet radiation matter?
Matter is anything with volume and mass...if it takes up space and has mass and is composed of atoms and molecules it is matter. Radiation comes in many forms that are absorbed in electron transitions at varying rates. For example, in the lower ultraviolet range all the uv from the sun is absorbed in a thin outer layer of your skin. Radiation is a form of energy that reacts with matter, but not a form of matter in and of itself.
All matter takes up space and has color true or false?
all matter occupies space but its not necessary to have colour as gas occupies space and doesn't has colour but its a matter.
What is meant by the term background radiation?
Backround radiation is an explosion which occured in space, which consists of radiation comming from all directions in space.
What is physics is all about?
Physics is the study of matter and its motion. (Along with the study of space and time.)
What is a huge space which contains all the matter and energy in existence?
What's the huge space which contains all of the matter and energy in existence
Why is radiation reaching the earth a problem?
If all the radiation from space reached Earth we would all die in a matter of minuets
The heat from an electric space heater is transferred to you by?
all objects emit electromagnetic radiation through empty space, as well as matter. So feel the heat from the electric heater due to radiation.
What is the univierse?
The universe is commonly defined as the totality of everything that exists, including: All physical matter Energy The planets The stars Galaxies and the contents of intergalactic space.

Can radiation travel though space?
All types of radiation can travel through space.

What two things characterize all matter?
All matter 1) has mass and 2) occupies space (has volume).
Is light from a lamp matter?
No, all light regardless of source is electromagnetic radiation. It is not matter.
All matter has what?
All matter has volume; it takes up space whether it is solid, liquid, or gas.

Is all forms of matter don't have mass and occupy space?
No, all forms of matter do have mass and occupy space.
How is thermal energy transferred though empty space?
Radiation (electromagnetic radiation does not require a medium, so light, and all other forms, including infrared radiation, can traverse empty space).
