of an object which is due to the object's temperature. An example of

How does the sun warm you on a hot day?


Earth is warmed by heat energy from the Sun.
How does this heat energy travel from the Sun to the Earth?

?
infrared
radiation
There are no particles
between the Sun and the
Earth so the heat cannot
travel by conduction or by
convection.

The heat travels to Earth by


infrared waves. They are
similar to light waves and
are able to travel through
empty space.

INFRARED WAVES
Heat can move by travelling as infrared waves.
These are electromagnetic waves, like light waves,
but with a longer wavelength.

This means that infrared waves act like light waves:


They can travel through a vacuum.
They travel at the same speed as light 300,000,000 m/s.
They can be reflected and absorbed.
Infrared waves heat objects that absorb them and so
can be called thermal radiation.

ABSORBING THERMAL RADIATION

Infrared waves heat objects that absorb (take in) them.


Some surfaces are better at absorbing thermal radiation than
others good emitters are also good absorbers.

Matt black surfaces are the best absorbers of radiation.


Shiny surfaces are the worst emitters because they reflect most
of the radiation away.

Why are shiny foil blankets wrapped around marathon


runners at the end of a race?
The shiny metal reflects the heat radiation from the
runner back in to their body, which stops the runner
from getting cold.
