Question

Which type of heat transfer occurs through electromagnetic waves? A. insulation B. conduction C. radiation D. convection

2 Answer

  • C is radiation
    Convection is the transfer of heat by the flow of material (usually air or water)
    Conduction is energy transferred when molecules bump into one another
    Radiation is the answer


  • Electromagnetic waves are often called "electromagnetic radiation".
    That's a really strong clue.

    Heat carried in the form of electromagnetic waves is radiation.
