How does the surface of an object affect its temperature?
Higher the surface area of an object, higher is its ability to radiate heat.
What are the two factors that affect the rate of heat gain or loss of am object through radiation?
Surface area and temperature gradient
How would the shape of an object affect the rate of change in temperature?
The larger the surface area the faster the rate of heat loss will be.
Does temperature affect the elasticity of an object?
As temperature decreases, elasticity also decreases.
The reflective quality of a surface is known as its?
Albedo is the fraction of solar energy (shortwave radiation) reflected from the Earth back into space. The albedo of an object is a measure of how strongly it reflects light from light sources such as the sun. It is therefore a more specific form of the term reflectivity.
What is the percentage of solar radiation reflected from a surface?
This is called the "albedo." It is the ratio of reflected light compared to incident light, and depends on the surface material and its condition (e.g. snow, grassland).
How does the surface of an object affect its temperature?
Higher the surface area of an object, higher is its ability to radiate heat.
What is something that has low albedo?
An object that has a high albedo is one that is highly reflective, but a poor absorber. An object that has a low albedo is one that does not reflect well, therefore, is a good absorber. This means that a black object has low albedo.
What processes contribute to the earth's albedo being 30 percent?
Albedo refers to the fraction of sunlight an object or material reflects. The average albedo of Earth's surface is 30%, which is influenced by deforestation and farming activities.
What are the two factors that affect the rate of heat gain or loss of am object through radiation?
Surface area and temperature gradient
How would the shape of an object affect the rate of change in temperature?
The larger the surface area the faster the rate of heat loss will be.
What is the name of the amount of sunlight that the surface of the moon reflects?
In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".
What factors affect the coefficient of friction between two surfaces?
Surface temperature, Weight of the object, Roughness of surface and the object
How does albedo affects the behavior of solar radiation?
Albedo is the proportion of light that an object reflects.
How does surface area affect the rate of cooling?
the color of an object will affect the rate of cooling e.g black objects cool down faster than shiny objects, the temperature around the object will also affect the rate of cooling, if the surrounding is cold, a hot object will cool faster than when the surrounding is hot.
How temperature effects the weight of an object?
Temperature does not affect the weight of an object. That is, unless you burn it or boil it.
What is surface temperature?
Surface temperature is the temperature on the outside of the object. For example the surface temperature of the Earth is the Ground temperature and the surface temperature of an orange is the rind not the pips.
