When does the surface particles of a soild gain enough energy to become a gas?
the process is called sublimation.
How does solar radiation heat up the earth's surface?
The sun converts hydrogen to light energy. This energy must travel through space, where there are no particles. To go through space, the energy is transferred by electromagnetic waves. When these waves hit the Earth's surface, they are absorbed by the typeof material at the top (rock, soil, water). As the waves are absorbes, they release their energy into the material's particles. This causes the particles to vibrate faster, causeing heat.
What is the measure of the speed of particles in a substance?
When we heat a substance, the energy absorbed is converted into kinetic energy of the particles in it. The faster the particles in it vibrate, move, collide, etc. the higher the temperatureof a substance.So the expected answer is Temperature
Which are the first particles to evaporate from a liquid?
The particles that evaporate from a liquid are on the surface of the liquid.
What percentage of the sun energy that reaches earth is absorbed by earth surface?
About 50 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. In addition, about 9 percent is reflected.About 22 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is reflected by clouds and the atmosphere.About 19 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by clouds and the atmosphere.
What does a liquid become when its particles have absorbed enough energy to escape the surface?
A gas
What happens to most of the sunlight that reaches Earth?
About 50% is absorbed by Earth's surface, about 25% is reflected by clouds, dust, and gases in the atmosphere, about 20% is absorbed by gases and particles in the atmosphere and about 5% is reflected by the surface back into the atmosphere. Also some absorbed energy is radiated back into the atmosphere.
What is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy?
"phosphorescence"Scattering is the release of light energy by particles of matter that have absorbed energy. The transfer of energy carried by light waves to particles of matter is absorption.
In which state have the particles absorbed the most heat?
Particles have absorbed the most heat energy in the gas state.
When does the surface particles of a soild gain enough energy to become a gas?
the process is called sublimation.
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.
Where is most of the sun's energy absorbed in water?
Most of the sun's energy is absorbed near the surface.
Is more energy from the sun absorbed or reflected by Earth's surface?
Absorbed
What is the energy pathway for an fluorescent source?
Electrical energy- Energy is then absorbed by mercury particles-ultra violet energy-energy absorbed by phosphor particles-visible light energy. This is what I found in my science textbook hopefully it helps.Thumbs up if it did.
When the suns rays strike the earths surface energy is absorbed or reflected?
absorbed
When the Sun's rays strikes Earth's surface energy is reflected or absorbed?
absorbed
