Question

a fire is burning in a fireplace. where is the radiation?
you touch the warm bricks next to the fireplace.
you can feel the heat from across the room.
heat is rising up from the chimney.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Heat transfer by radiation occurs when heat is transferred through electromagnetic waves. When you feel heat from across the room, it is because infrared radiation (a type of electromagnetic radiation) is traveling from the fire to you. Touching warm bricks is conduction (heat transfer through direct contact), and heat rising up the chimney is convection (heat transfer through the movement of fluids - in this case, hot air).

Answer:

You can feel the heat from across the room.
