Electromagnetic Energy does not require matter to be transferred...that is why it can travel through the vacuum of space.

Which energy transfer can take place with little or no matter present?

The type of energy transfer that can take place with little or no matter present is radiation.


Can energy be transferred by conduction even when no matter is present?

No, conduction requires the presence of matter for energy to be transferred. Energy transfer by conduction occurs through direct contact between particles in a material, so without matter, conduction cannot take place.


What is the transfer of thermal energy by movement of heated matter?

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy by the movement of heated matter, such as air or water. This process occurs as warmer, less dense material rises and cooler, denser material sinks, creating a convection current that transfers heat.


What transfers energy to ATP?

During cellular respiration, the breakdown of glucose transfers energy to ATP. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and involves a series of biochemical reactions that generate ATP molecules.


Which transfers heat from one object to another without transferring matter?

Radiation transfers heat from one object to another without transferring matter. This occurs through electromagnetic waves emitted by the hotter object and absorbed by the cooler object.


A blow dyer transfers thermal energy mainly by?

A blow dryer transfers thermal energy mainly by convection and radiation. Convection occurs as the hot air from the dryer rises and displaces cooler air, while radiation transfers heat directly from the heating element to the surrounding environment.


What can the state of matter be changed by?

A change in the state of matter occurs when heat energy is added or removed.


In what direction does heat flow Why do particles of matter transfers thermal energy in this direction?

Heat flows from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature due to the tendency of particles to move from higher kinetic energy to lower kinetic energy. This transfer of thermal energy occurs via conduction, convection or radiation, depending on the medium.


What form of energy comes form inefficiency in energy transfers?

I need more information


What state of matter travels through convection?

In convection, the state of matter that travels is usually a fluid, such as a liquid or a gas. This occurs when warmer fluid rises and cooler fluid sinks, creating a continuous circular motion that transfers heat energy.


What energy transformation occurs in a windmill used to generate electricity?

kinetic energy (potential energy) which transfers to mechanical energy


What occurs when matter changes from a solid to a liquid?

You are adding heat/energy. It is melting.
