the air being heated by the sun
Yes, the Earth's atmosphere is heated by solar energy. Sunlight penetrates the atmosphere and warms the surface of the Earth. This heat is then radiated back into the atmosphere, contributing to its overall temperature.
Air heated to incandescence.
A spacecraft has to work against the air friction when it enters our atmosphere. Thus it gets heated a
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
The sun as it is the most powerful heat source in our solar system.
It is heated ionised air and matter from the meteorite.
It is heated ionised air and matter from the meteorite.
The streak of light across the sky caused when a space rock falls through the atmosphere and is heated to incandescence is a "meteor".
The Earth's troposphere is mainly heated from the ground up because the Earth's surface absorbs more sunlight than the atmosphere, causing it to warm up. This warmth is then transferred to the air immediately above the ground through conduction and convection, creating a temperature gradient with the surface being warmer than the higher altitudes.
