Energy from the sun travels to Earth by radiation because space is a vacuum and there is no medium for convection or conduction to occur. Radiation is the most efficient way for heat to transfer through the vacuum of space.
Energy may not be transferred by conduction or convection if there is a lack of a medium to conduct or convect the energy, such as in a vacuum. In such cases, energy can be transferred through radiation, which does not require a medium and can travel through empty space.
The sun primarily transfers energy through radiation. Energy from the sun is released in the form of electromagnetic waves, which travel through the vacuum of space to reach the Earth. Convection and conduction processes occur within the sun itself, as part of its internal energy distribution.
Yes, heat can travel through conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between materials, convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water, and radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves.
There are three types of transferrable energy: conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction- heat that moves from solid object to solid object by physical means. Convection- heat that moves about a gaseous object (think about boiling water) Radiation- light energy that can travel through space and needs no object to transfer through. The correct answer for this question would be radiation.
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
Energy from the sun travels to Earth by radiation because space is a vacuum and there is no medium for convection or conduction to occur. Radiation is the most efficient way for heat to transfer through the vacuum of space.
You are probably thinking of convection, which is transfer of heat by currents set up by variations in density of the liquid.
The sun moves through the electromagnetic waves. Conduction and Convection transfers energy between differences in density.

thermal energy travel through anything such as wires and even ice cubes! thermal energy can also be tranferred from one object to another by radation, conduction, and convection

Electromagnetic radiation can travel through a vacuum (like the vacuum of space), while conduction and convection require matter to do their thing.
Thermal energy is transferred through conduction (direct contact), convection (through liquids or gases), or radiation (through electromagnetic waves). In conduction, heat is transferred from one molecule to another through direct contact. In convection, heated material rises and cooler material sinks, creating a cycle of energy transfer. Radiation transfers energy through electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium to travel through.
Yes. Here's a logical proof: There are three ways to transfer energy from place to place: --Conduction, --Convection, --Radiation. Conduction and convection need a 'medium' ... a substance to conduct or convect through. Radiation doesn't need anything to travel through. There is no medium ... no substance ... in the space between the sun and the earth, but heat and light from the sun reach the earth constantly. Since there is no medium for it to travel through, it can't be getting here by means of conduction or convection. The only possibility is radiation.
