Yet, despite the advent of hybrid vehicles, better and cheaper batteries, and the entry of high-performance luxury electric competitors, the former continues to dominate roads globally.
Radiant energy is energy that travels by waves or particles, particularly electromagnetic radiation such as heat or x-rays. An example of radiant energy is the source of energy used in radiation therapy.
One of the interesting facts about radiant energy is it moves in a straight line, and it can be absorbed or reflected if the object cannot absorb it. Soil, for example, absorbs radiant energy, and this light and heat absorption warms seeds and roots in the soil to promote growth.
