Answer:

the heat from the hotter to the colder region. Some common examples of Radiation are Ultraviolet light from the sun, heat from a stove burner, visible light from a candle, x-rays from an x-ray machine. All life on Earth depends on the transfer of energy from the Sun, and this energy is transferred to the Earth over empty space.

Answer:

This type of transfer takes place in a forced-air furnace and in weather systems, for example. Heat transfer by radiation occurs when microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, or another form of electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed. An obvious example is the warming of the Earth by the Sun.
