auroas
In polar regions ions radiate energy are shimmering ligts called?
Auroras. In the north, they are the Aurora Borealis, and i the south they are Aurora Australis.
What objects can radiate energy?
All objects radiate energy at a rate depending on their temperature.
Does a drum set radiate sound energy?
Yes, a drum set can radiate sound energy when the surface of the drum vibrates on striking it to set particle molecules in air to transfer energy in a wave form and radiate out.
What is the process by which gases in the atmosphere absorb thermal energy and radiate it back to earth called?
the greenhouse effect
What is the meaning of pulsar?
radiate energy
Does the sun radiate both visible energy and invisible energy?
yes.
Why electrons does not radiate energy?
It cannot radiate because it cannot remain single but joins with a positive ion or proton.
Does the sun radiate visible and invisible energy?
Yes.
In which layer of the atmosphere do the Auroras occur?
In the upper mesosphere and the lower thermosphere, gas particles become electrically charged. Because these charged particles are called ions, this part of the thermosphere is called the ionosphere. In polar regions these ions radiate energy as shimmering lights called auroras, usually in latitudes above 50 degrees. The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space. For more information visit the question "What causes the Aurora Borealis?"
Radiation transfers thermal energy by?
thermal energy will always radiate to lower energy matter.
What is the definition of the word 'radiate'?
The definition of 'radiate' is to emit energy in the form of waves or rays. More specifically, 'radiate' also refers to energy being released in heat, gas or light form. Synonyms of the word include 'beam' and 'emit'.
