Answer to Question #173460 in Mechanical Engineering for Jalena Gee

Question

Which means of heat exchange transfers energy through waves that induce a temperature changes when absorbed by an object?

Answer 1

The radiation heat exchange transfer energy through electromagnetic waves. This type of heat exchange does not require any material medium for its propagation. When radiation energy falls on an object, energy may get absorbed by the object and the temperature of the object may get changed depending on other thermodynamic conditions of object.
