How does a hot water radiator heat a room?
A hot water radiator heats a room by circulating hot water through a series of pipes inside the radiator. The hot water transfers its heat to the metal of the radiator, which then radiates warmth into the room through convection and radiation. This warms the air in the room and increases the overall temperature.
How a hot-water radiator heats a rooms air. Include in your answer the way heat moves from the metal radiator to the room.?
A hot-water radiator heats a room by transferring heat from the hot water flowing through the radiator to the metal surface of the radiator. The metal then radiates this heat into the surrounding air in the room through a combination of conduction and convection. As the air near the radiator heats up, it rises, creating a natural circulation of warm air in the room.

Why does the radiator get hot at the top but not the bottom?
The hot water that enters the radiator rises to the top as it is lighter and less dense than the cooler water at the bottom. This creates a temperature difference between the top and bottom of the radiator. Heat is transferred from the hot water to the radiator fins, which in turn heats the surrounding air.

I have a 97 Dodge Stratus If your car ran hot after about two hours but did not read hot could it be the thermostat?
You say it's running hot, so i am assuming you have hot water in the radiator. If the thermostat was not opening, there would be no hot water in the radiator. Since the temperature sensor is on the engine, it reads the temp of the water in the engine. (Not in the radiator). The fact you have over heating tells me the water is getting hot but the sensor is not reflecting that. I would say it's either the sensor, or the gauge.
