Where does the earth emits radiation with greatest intensity at?
The Earth emits infrared radiation at greatest intensity
What will happen to the amount of infrared radiation emit if an objects temperature is increased?
Increase
Greenhouse gases can stop the transmission of this type of ray.?
Greenhouse gases stop the transmission of infrared rays. These are the rays which carry heat away from the earth, and therefore an increase in greenhouse gases results in global warming.
What happens to incoming solar radiation after it is reflected off the surface of the earth?
The wavelength is longer. Energy is re-radiated by the Earth as infrared radiation (heat).
Most of the energy that heats earth's atmosphere is?
Heat from the sun rising as infrared radiation from the surface of the earth.
What would happen if gases absorbs visible light?
Earth's atmosphere does have greenhouse gases. These gases absorb some of the infrared radiation emitted by Earth's surface. If it did not, Earth would grow warmer and warmer as it absorbed more and more solar radiation. Greenhouse gas molecules absorb and emit infrared radiation.
Where does the earth emits radiation with greatest intensity at?
The Earth emits infrared radiation at greatest intensity
What type of radiation is trapped on the Earth's surface by the Greenhouse effect?
Infrared Radiation
How does the earth exchange energy with the universe?
Radiation. Mostly sunshine in, infrared radiation outward.
What type of radiation is trapped on earth's surface by green house effect?
Infrared radiation
Is it true that infrared radiation cannot be seen but it can be felt as heat?
Yes, that is true. About half of the sun's energy comes to the Earth as infrared radiation.
Can infrared be generated on earth?
Infrared radiation is emitted by almost everything on Earth because almost everything is a temperature that will emit at that wavelength. Even you are emitting in the infrared.
Greenhouse effect events in order starting with lights origin?
Incident infrared radiation is blocked. Visible and ultraviolet radiation heat Earth. Earth radiates infrared radiation. Infrared radiation is blocked and heats Earth. Visible and shortwave radiation heat Earth.Earth radiates longwave radiationLongwave radiation is reflected downward Longwave radiation heats Earth
What is the common name for infrared radiation?
Infrared radiation, infrared, heat radiation.
Does the earth or the sun emit more infrared radiation?
true
Is a telescope on a satellite made to detect x-rays?
Some of them are. Also, to detect other radiation that doesn't reach Earth, or hardly reaches it - like infrared for example.Some of them are.

Infrared radiation and ultraviolet radiation make up most of the energy Earth receives from the sun?
false
