Visible light is an insignificant portion of the solar radiation that warms the Earth.
The sun's infrared radiation, also known as 'heat', is responsible for virtually all
of it.
What else can I help you with?
How does visible light cause earths surface to become warmer?
Visible light is an insignificant portion of the solar radiation that warms the Earth. The sun's infrared radiation, also known as 'heat', is responsible for virtually all of it.
Why is earth's surface warmer in the northern hemisphere when it is summer there?
Cause the sun is facing there
Would increases in atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide cause the atmosphere to become warmer?
Yes.
The primary cause of a radiation inversion is?
The primary cause of a radiation inversion is when the Earth's surface loses heat rapidly at night, causing the air near the surface to cool and become denser. This denser air forms a layer close to the ground, trapping cooler air below and warmer air above, resulting in an inversion layer.
What could cause the moon to be visible in the day sky?
The moon can be visible in the day sky because of its position in relation to the sun and Earth, allowing sunlight to reflect off its surface and be visible during the day.
Is earth warmer or cooler than Saturn?
Warmer, cause its closer to the sun.
Does Earth cause tides on the moon?
Earth also affect the Moon, but since there was no oceans or surface water on the moon, the effect is not noticeable in any visible way.
If something is warmer will it evaporate quicker?
Yes, warmer temperatures can cause liquids to evaporate more quickly because the higher energy levels make the molecules move faster, leading to more frequent collisions with the surface and thus increasing the rate of evaporation.
Can kinetic energy be visible?
The movement cause by the kinetic energy is visible.
Is the sun a cause of the clouds?
Indirectly, yes. The sun heats the surface of the Earth, including bodies of water. Water evaporates and air near the surface becomes warmer. The warm air rises, cooling as it does so. The moisture then condenses to form clouds.
Does warmer weather cause smells to get stronger?
Yes
With no visible leaks external or internal what would cause the foor-board to become soaked in a 1996 Corvette?
If it's air conditioned, the condensate drain could have become blocked and spill over into the floorboard.
