Radiant Energy
Examples of Radiant Energy
The term radiant energy refers to energy that travels by waves or particles, particularly electromagnetic radiation such as heat or x-rays. Radiant energy is created through electromagnetic waves and was discovered in 1885 by Sir William Crookes. Fields in which this terminology is most often used are telecommunications, heating, radiometry, lighting, and in terms of energy created from the sun. Radiant energy is measured in joules.

Everyday Examples of Radiant Energy
Virtually anything that has a temperature gives off radiant energy. Some examples of radiant energy include:
The heat emitted from a campfire
Emission of heat from a hot sidewalk
X-rays give off radiant energy
Microwaves utilize radiant energy
Space heaters produce radiant energy
Heat created by the body can be radiant energy
Lighting fixtures
Home heating units
Fixtures that convert solar energy to heat
Visible light
Gamma rays
Radio waves
Electricity
A surface heated by the sun converts the energy of the light into infrared energy which is a form of radiant energy
Cell phones utilize radiant energy to function
