What is an example of Reflection of light?
Sun light hitting the atmosphere of the earth.
How do gas particles inside a football cause pressure to be exerted on the wall of th football?
Gas is made up of lots of particles that are all flying about bouncing of anything the touch. The more pressure there is the moreparticles there. So at normal pressure outside the ball there is a normal amount of particles hitting of the outside of the ball. On the inside of the ball the pressure is higher so there are lots of particles hitting of the hinside of the ball effectively pushing it out. Hope this makes sense :)
What is the force caused by particles hitting a certain area?
Pressure. It is measured as a given force applied over a given area.
Why does smoke particles move in zig-zag?
Because of the air particles hitting it from all directions one direction at a time wich cause it to move in a Zig-Zag way. Luay Al-Hinai
How does streamline help reduce air resistance?
As air particles hit against the object, it produces air resistance and therefore slowing down the spped of the object. A streamline object can avoid the air particles hitting its surfaces directly. Instead of hitting onto it and slowing it down, a streamline shape allows the particles and travel around it. Hence, reducing air resistance so it can remain its high speed. Hope this will help but don't trust it entirely After all, I am only 14
Auroras are caused by what hitting the atmosphere?
Auroras are caused by charged solar particles colliding with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the ionosphere, which is the highest level of the atmosphere.
Result of charged particles hitting gas particles?
Light, on most cases.
Natural sources of water particles in the atmosphere?
Evaporation. Sunlight hitting any liquid water will cause the water to evaporate into its gaseous state.
What is a kid friendly definition of ionosphere?
The ionosphere is the part of the earth's atmosphere (the layers of gases that surround the earth and stay there because of the earth's gravity) where sunrays are able to ionize some of the gas substance. This means that the gas substances, because of the high amounts of energy in the sunrays hitting them, lose or gain electrically charged particles (such as electrons, the tiny charged particles orbiting the atom core, or ions, larger, electrically charged particles) and themselves become electrically charged. Electrical charge is responsible for the fundamental force of physics called electromagnetism, which is what creates magnetism and electricity. Because of this electromagnetism in the ionosphere, when large bursts of sunrays hit the atmosphere from time to time the amazing northern lights and southern lights, the auroras, become visible in the far north and far south of our planet.
The Aurora borealis is caused by the what?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.
What happens after the suns rays hit the earth?
They are either reflected, some hitting clouds others caught by particles in the atmosphere or continue on back in to space - or they are absorbed as heat energy
What is the charge for hitting a moving car with a snow ball?
You can be charged up to 600 dollars for hitting a car with a snowball. You can also be arrested and charged with assault.
How does the gas particles move?
From atoms hitting them.
What causes the Aurora borealis (Northern lights)?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.
What causes aurora borealis northern lights?
Aurora Borealis is caused by particles hitting earth's atmosphere thermosphere and they are stopped, so they give of their energy in the "Northern Lights" or Aurora Borealis.
How come the Aurora Lights are never the same?
The Aurora lights are caused by particles thrown out by the sun hitting the earth atmopshere, so they look different because they hit the atmosphere at different points.
Is it ok to threaten someone by hitting them?
No, you can be charged with battery at least.
