What else can I help you with?
When the suns rays strike the earths surface energy is absorbed or reflected?
absorbed
Is the suns energy completely absorbed by the atmosphere?
No it is not.
When the suns rays strike earth's surface energy is?
Absorbed
Do the suns rays get reflected or absorbed by energy?
Neither, they ARE energy.
Why it is warmer near the equator than the pole?
The angle at which the suns rays hit the earth is more nearly perpendicular, therefore more energy is delivered per unit area. Secondly the rays pass through much less atmosphere so less energy is absorbed by the atmosphere.

What happens to the energy from the suns rays?
The energy from the sun's rays is absorbed by the Earth's surface, oceans, and atmosphere. This energy is then converted into heat, which drives weather patterns, ocean currents, and the growth of plants through photosynthesis.
What prevents most of the suns rays from reaching us?
The Atmosphere
What prevents most of the suns gamma rays from reaching us?
The Atmosphere
How much of the Suns energy is absorbed by earth's geosphere?
Less than 1% of the Sun's energy is absorbed by Earth's geosphere. The majority of the Sun's energy is absorbed by the atmosphere and surface of the Earth.
Where are blue skies?
Well when the suns rays hits our Earths atmosphere, the suns rays scatter across the world nearly and becomes blue skies...
What is mostly affected by the suns ultraviolet rays?
The ozone layer is mostly affected the by the suns ultraviolet rays. This layer is present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere.
