What else can I help you with?
Why does the colour of sky appear blue?
The sky appears blue due to Rayleigh scattering, where shorter blue wavelengths of light are scattered more by molecules in the Earth's atmosphere, making them more prevalent in the sky. This scattering of sunlight is responsible for the blue color we see during the day.
How does temperature of earths crust compare to the temperature of earths interior?
it depends on the deepth
Does the atmosphere keep the earths temperature stable?
Yes, the atmosphere helps regulate Earth's temperature by trapping heat from the sun through the greenhouse effect. This helps maintain a relatively stable climate suitable for life on Earth.
Is scattering a natural process that keeps earths atmosphere warm?
No, scattering has nothing to do with keeping the earth warm. Scattering refers to the way rays of light, or radiation or other particles have to change direction, often when they bump into something.
How does the ocean regulate earths temperature?
Water has a much higher specific heat (what's that?) than Earth (as in rocks or sand). Therefore, the ocean acts as a buffer (the land gets colder and hotter).
What percentage of suns radiation is reflected by the earths surface?
About 30% of the sun's radiation is reflected back into space by the Earth's surface, clouds, and atmosphere. This reflection is known as albedo and helps regulate the Earth's temperature.
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as?
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
