उत्तर
They are both forms of electromagnetic waves travelling in straight lines
Explanation:
Thermal radiation travels as electromagnetic (EM) waves in straight lines at the speed of light, exactly like visible light. Both are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and do not require a medium, which is why the Sun's heat can reach Earth across the vacuum of space.
