2 answers:
The Sun's energy reaches the earth by Radiation
<h3><em>Further explanation</em></h3>
Heat is the energy transfer of an object with the environment or other objects because of the temperature difference between the two.
Heat moves from high-temperature objects to low-temperature objects
The process of heat transfer has 3 types
- 1. Conduction, which is the transfer of energy that requires an intermediate medium and without the transfer of particles
- 2. Convection is the transfer of energy due to the movement of the particles
- 3. Radiation is the transfer of energy without an intermediate medium / through vacuum
Energy from sun to earth through its atmosphere is not through conduction because the atmosphere is a bad conductor. Whereas convection is not possible because the earth must be heated first. And conduction and convection cannot pass through vacuum
Heat transfer from the sun occurs because its energy is carried in the form of electromagnetic waves
