What creates the heat while a space shuttle is leaving the atmosphere?
In the exosphere, Friction between the atmosphere and the shuttle creates the heat.
What warms the atmosphere?
Mostly the sun. The sun's heat warms the earth. This heat, in the form of infra-red energy rises into the atmosphere where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. This greenhouse effect warms the atmosphere.
Why the moon is colder?
No atmosphere to retain heat
Why do space vehicles heat up when they enter the earth's atmosphere?
The Space vehicles heat up when they enter the earth's atmosphere because the tendency of the air is to compress quickly when the space vehicle hits the atmosphere. When the gasses compressed the temperature also rises which causes the heat.
What reflects heat back into space and traps heat near Earth?
Clouds and the atmosphere.
Is heat energy redistributed globally?
Solar radiation (heat energy) is redistributed globally by wind and ocean currents.
Heat is transferred throughout the atmosphere primarily by?
Convection
Describe how this heat energy is redistributed globally?
IDONTKNOW
How is heat energy redistributed?
By convection, conduction and radiation.
6 different heat transfers?
# Coduction # Radiation # Convention # Latent heat # Heat pipes # I learned that convection currents transfer heat throughout the troposphere. (part of the atmosphere)
How is heat energy spread throughout the atmosphere?
it is spread by a fire being started because the wind can blow it through the atmosphere because smoke is just like oxygen and it is light .
In the sense that as the earth's surface is heated by the light from the Sun it is heated unequally describe how this heat energy is redistributed globally?
Through deep ocean currents and atmosphere currents i.i the elnemo (high speed jet wind current) circulating the globe.
Is it possible to construct a heat engine that will not expel heat into the atmosphere?
is it possible to construt a heat engine that will not expel heat into the atmosphere
Where do greenhouse gasses sit in the atmosphere?
They distribute evenly throughout the atmosphere.
Describe how radiation.conductionconvection heat up atmosphere?
describe how radiation,conduction,and convection heat up atmosphere?
What is the measure of the amount of heat energy in the atmosphere?
The measure of heat in a given place is called the temperature.
Why did Australia leave World War 2?
they didn't. they fought the Japanese until their surrender. troops were however redistributed throughout the war between the pacific and Europe at times.
