What happens to the amount of energy in water when it goes from a gas to a liquid?
The water molecules release energy in the form of infrared photons that are absorbed by the surrounding air.
What is the Fate of the in infrared light incident on glass?
Typically, the IR energy is absorbed by the glass as heat.
What happens to sunlight hits earth surface?
It gets absorbed by the surface, reflected, and even radiated back as infrared rays where it is absorbed by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
What happens after the light is absorbed by a radiometer?
The light energy is absorbed and dispersed after it hits the radiometer.
What happens to the energy in the wavelengths of light that are not reflected?
they are absorbed
How is visible light convert to infrared in greenhouse effect?
Visible light heats the earth and the earth emits infrared energy which is absorbed by green house gases that trap the heat.
What happens to wasted energy during energy transfers?
Its absorbed by the atmosphere:D<3
Explain as completely as possible why the asphalt was so much hotter than the concrete?
The concrete, being nearly white, reflected much of the Sun's infrared energy, while the asphalt, being black, absorbed much of the Sun's infrared energy. (Infrared radiation is associated with heat.)
What happens to beta alpha and gamma radiation after they are emitted?
they are absorbed, depositing their energy in whatever absorbed them.
What happens to that energy from the sun that is absorbed by earth surface?
Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.
What happens to the energy from the sun that is absorbed. by earths surface?
Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.
What happens to the energy of light absorbed ina an absorbing filter?
It changes to heat energy.
