What else can I help you with?
What does the heat from the Earth's core do?
It attempts to reach the surface of the Earth.
How long will it take the get the suns heat to earth?
It will take 8 minutes for the light from the sun to reach Earth. The actual heat of the sun does not reach all the way out to Earth. The warmth on Earth comes from the conversion of light energy to heat energy.
How does the heat of the sun reach in earth?
The heat of the sun reaches the earth by radiation, E = hf =hc/w.
How long will it take earth to get to the sun?
It will take 8 minutes for the light from the sun to reach Earth. The actual heat of the sun does not reach all the way out to Earth. The warmth on Earth comes from the conversion of light energy to heat energy.
Why heat cannot reach the earth from the sun by conduction or convection?
Heat from the sun cannot reach the earth through conduction or convection because space is a vacuum and does not contain matter to transfer heat. Heat from the sun reaches the earth through radiation, as electromagnetic waves travel through the vacuum of space.
How does the suns energy reach Earth?
Waves of heat and light, called radiation, travel to earth.
What type of heat transfer allows the Sun's heat to reach the Earth?
The Sun's heat reaches the Earth through radiation, which is a type of heat transfer where energy is transmitted in the form of electromagnetic waves.
-More meteorites reach the surface of the moon than the Earth Why?
Most of the meteorites which reach Earth burn up as they enter Earth's atmosphere due the heat caused by friction. The moon has no atmosphere.
How long does it take for heat of the Sun fusion reactions to reach the sun's surface?
From the surface of the sun the heat radiations take 8 minutes to reach the surface of hte earth.
Is heat from the sun transmitted to the earth by convection?
No, heat from the sun is transmitted to the Earth through radiation. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids like air or water. In the case of the sun, the heat travels through the vacuum of space to reach the Earth.
Why do meteorites reach the surface of the Moon then the surface of the Earth?
More reach the surface of the moon because there is no atmosphere to heat and burn them up.
Does the sun's heat reach Earth?
yes that is why it is warm enough to support life on earth. Also that is why people get sun burned.
