Radiation takes place when heat is transferred because of the movement of electromagnetic waves.
<u>EXPLANATION:</u>
Radiation is a process in which heat gets transferred from a hot to a cold body.
This in turn lowers the temperature of the hot body and raises the temperature of the cold body making it hot. Most of the heat that we receive from the sun is from radiation.
In conduction and convection, particles are matter transfer heat from a hot body to a cold body.
RADIATION: Both conduction and convection require matter to transfer heat. ... Thermal radiation (often called infrared radiation) is a type electromagnetic radiation (or light). Radiation is a form of energy transport consisting of electromagnetic waves traveling at the speed of light.
