Energy transfer is the transfer of energy from one object or material to another.

Ie) The sun giving off heat

Energy transfer is the transfer of energy from one object or material to another.

There are a few main ways that energy transfer occurs:

Radiant energy (radiation)

Heat conduction (travelling heat)

Convection (currents of warm air)

Electrical power transmission

Mechanical work (machines)

Radiant energy is the energy that propagates through space or through material media in the form of electromagnetic radiation.

Transfar of energy form one material to another. electric energy changed in heat and light energy.
