How does solar energy affect tornadoes?
The energy that powers tornadoes ultimately comes from the sun. The sun heats the earth's surface which in turn heats the lower atmosphere. This heat can lead to thunderstorms, which, under the right conditions, can produce tornadoes.
What is the benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun?
The benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun is to keep Earth warm.
Why doesn't all of the energy from the sun that enters the atmosphere reach the Earth?
The atmosphere reflects some of the energy back into space.
How does energy transfer from the sun to earth and the atmosphere?
it goes throgh the atmosphere and enter the other plsnts to get to the energy that we need on earth
Can a hot air balloon leave earths atmosphere?
No
How does energy ultimately leave the bioshere?
no
What are the two sources of energy that fuel life on earth -?
sun and the atmosphere The sun and volcanic vents
Is wind energy a renewable?
no it is not Yes it is. The energy in the wind comes from the sun whose light heats the surface of the earth and the atmosphere. It is that heat that ultimately drives the movements of the atmosphere. So the energy in the wind is constantly renewed by new energy from the sun.
Is wind a form of radiant energy?
No. Because wind consists of moving molecules of gas (matter), the energy involved is kinetic. However, wind ultimately has its source in the effects of radiant energy from the sun on the earth's surface and atmosphere..
What are the types of energy you use on earth?
Heat and electromagnetic radiation from the Sun, heat from underground, Potential energy from water running down hill (ultimately this has come from the Sun as the atmosphere is powered by the Sun and it is the rain that feeds rivers). Radioactive energy from minerals in the Earth.
How can energy be transferred through the atmosphere?
Energy is transferred through the atmosphere by radiation.
How does Earths Atmosphere Gets Energy?
by the earth's energy being reflected to the atmosphere
What type of energy is transmitted through the atmosphere?
Through the atmosphere rather than by the atmosphere, then that would be electromagnetic energy.
How does solar energy affect tornadoes?
The energy that powers tornadoes ultimately comes from the sun. The sun heats the earth's surface which in turn heats the lower atmosphere. This heat can lead to thunderstorms, which, under the right conditions, can produce tornadoes.
The is the source of all energy in our atmosphere.?
The source of all energy in our atmosphere is the sun.Some energy is reflected back into space, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, some is absorbed by land and water on Earth's surface (all of the above) When Earth receives energy from the Sun.
What does the amount of energy in the atmosphere depend on?
the amount of energy absorbed by the sun and the amount of energy that escapes the earths atmosphere.
What is the term for the measure of thermal energy in the atmosphere?
what is the term for the measure of thermal energy in the atmosphere
