How is solar energy collected and then turned into useable energy?
Solar energy can be collected in solar cells and can be transferred into storage battery converting into electrical energy.
What is an example of energy being transferred?
when solar energy gets away from the sun and the plants absorb the solar energy.
How can you tell if solar energy has heated Earth or if energy from the sun has transferred to Earth?
Very simply, you can "see" the sun or feel the sun's warmth. Both of these tell you that solar energy from the sun has transferred to earth.
Is solar energy same as solar cells?
No, solar energy and solar cells are not the same, although sometimes people do use the phrases as though they were interchangable. Solar energy is energy that is transferred from the sun to the earth. Solar cells are devices that turn energy from the sun into photovoltaic energy that we can use.
How life depends upon solar energy in their survival?
Autotrophs fix solar energy into chemical energy via photosynthesis. This glucose and the chemical energy within, is consumed and transferred along the food web to all other heterotrophs.
Heat energy is transferred from the sun to the solar panel by. what?
solar energy

How is solar energy from the Sun transferred to the Earth?
It is transferred by the energy of photons and heat radiation. Convection doesnt work as there is vacuum between sun and earth.

How is the solar energy transferred to earth affected by different materials on earth?
By the sun
Which organism would receive the least amount of transferred solar energy?
owls
Where can solar power be found?
Solar power is energy from the sun which is transferred into electricity, so it is found anywhere that the is sun!
The Earth is warmed by solar energy. How is this energy transferred from the sun to the Earth?
By radiation: mainly in the infrared wavelengths.
How life depends upon solar energy in their survival?
Autotrophs fix solar energy into chemical energy via photosynthesis. This glucose and the chemical energy within, is consumed and transferred along the food web to all other heterotrophs.
