∙ 11y agoHeat travels through space by radiation because electromagnetic waves can propagate in a vacuum. In contrast, conduction and convection require a medium like a solid, liquid, or gas to transfer heat through collisions or circulation of particles. Since there is no medium in space, conduction and convection cannot occur.
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.
conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact of particles, convection is the transfer of heat through fluid motion, and radiation is the transfer of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves without the need for a medium.
Heat can travel through conduction, convection, and radiation. In conduction, heat is transferred through direct contact of molecules. In convection, heat is transferred through the movement of fluids such as air or water. In radiation, heat is transferred through electromagnetic waves.
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.

For conduction and convection we need a material medium. But for radiation such a meaterial medium is not necessary. So in free space radiation can pass through easily.
Convection and conduction require matter to travel through, and there is no matter between Earth and the Sun
Radiation can travel through empty space. The radiation in question is electromagnetic waves.

Conduction, Convection and Radiation (Infrared).
Heat can travel through conduction, convection, or radiation. Light travels in waves, specifically as electromagnetic radiation, which can move through a vacuum or a medium.
Electromagnetic radiation can travel through a vacuum (like the vacuum of space), while conduction and convection require matter to do their thing.
No, heat does not require a medium to travel. Heat can be transferred through conduction, convection, or radiation, and can travel through a vacuum as well.
Yes, heat is transferred through particles by conduction, convection, or radiation. In conduction, heat is transferred through direct contact between particles, while in convection, it is transferred through the movement of particles in a fluid. Radiation allows heat to travel through empty space via electromagnetic waves.
