How do stars like the sun create energy that is later radiated away into space?

The energy comes from "nuclear fusion". Stars like the Sun create helium from hydrogen by this method, and that gives out energy. That's how the Sun creates energy.

What energy is radiated by Earths oceans into space?
biochemical raditaion
What enters the ecosystem as sunlight leaves it as heat?
That is approximately the case; it would be more accurate to say that the energy content of the visible light of the sun is (in part) later radiated into space at night in the form of infrared radiation. Of course, not all of the energy is radiated into space, since some of it does other things such as driving photosynthesis or causing the evaporation of water.
What occurs when radiant energy is reflected back into space?
Solar energy that heats the surface is re-radiated as infrared radiation, some of which is absorbed by the atmosphere in the process. Water vapor, methane, and carbon dioxide can all collect this re-radiated energy to some extent.
How much energy of space structure is there in 1 metric cubic meter of space?
I don't think there is any energy associated with empty space.
Why does earth get more energy from the sun than from all other stars in the universe combined?
The other stars are so distant that most energy is lost to space. Radiated energy uses the "inverse square" law- 2 x as far= 1/4 as much, 4 times as far = 1/16th as much, etc. 10 times as far=1/100th as much. The other stars are MILLIONS of times further away than the sun.

What is balanced between incoming solar energy and outgoing energy radiated into space called?
According to scientists, the balance between incoming solar energy and outgoing energy radiated into space is considered the earth energy budget.

What happens to the energy radiated by the earth?
It's lost to space
What energy is radiated by Earths oceans into space?
biochemical raditaion

Where does thermal energy go when it gets cold?
It will be radiated into outer space.
What enters the ecosystem as sunlight leaves it as heat?
That is approximately the case; it would be more accurate to say that the energy content of the visible light of the sun is (in part) later radiated into space at night in the form of infrared radiation. Of course, not all of the energy is radiated into space, since some of it does other things such as driving photosynthesis or causing the evaporation of water.
Where do thermal energy go when it is wasted?
It heats up the environment. Eventually, it will be radiated out into space.
What forms of electromagnetic energy carry most of the energy of the sun to earth?
It is radiated electromagnetic energy, the only sort that can travel through space.
Solar radiation that is not reflected by Earth's systems is absorbed This absorbed energy is then reradiates as what into space?
This absorbed energy is then re-radiated as heat
The Earth loses energy to space only at night?
Of course not. Energy is radiated out all the time. The hotter an object, the more energy will radiate away.
