In which layer of the sun is energy transferred between atoms?

In the convection Zone!


Layer that surrounds the radiation zone of the sun?

The layer that surrounds the radiation zone of the sun is the convection zone. In this zone, energy is transferred by the movement of hot plasma rising and cooler plasma sinking, creating a convection current. This process allows energy to be transported from the core to the surface of the sun.


What layer of the sun is energy transferred between atoms?

The convection zone


In which layer of the sun is energy transferred between?

The convection zone.


Where is the Convection zone located?

The convection zone in a star like the Sun is located just beneath the photosphere. It is the layer where energy generated in the star's core is transported to the surface via convection currents, providing the energy needed for the star to shine.


What are the layers of the sun from inside out and what are their densities?

The layers of the sun from inside out are the core, radiative zone, convective zone, photosphere, chromosphere, and corona. The core is the densest layer, with a density of about 150 g/cm3. As you move outward, the density decreases, with the corona being the least dense layer.


What is the layer of the sun through which energy travels by convection from the radiative zone to the atmosphere?

From the Sun's core, energy moves through the radiative zone, across the tachocline (transition layer) to the convective zone, and then to the outer convective zone with its visible granulation.


What are the layers of of sun?

The layers of the Sun, from outermost to innermost, are the corona, chromosphere, photosphere, convective zone, and radiative zone. The core is at the center of the Sun where nuclear fusion occurs.


How does energy from the sun's core to the photosphere?

It goes out from the core into the radiation zone then into the convection zone where convection happens then it goes to the photosphere to become granules.


Which layer of the sun is energy transferred between atoms?

The convection zone.


What is a interior layers of sun?

They are the Convection Zone, Radiative Zone, then the Core.


What are the layers of the sun and what occurs in each?

The sun has many different layers that make up the sun: Core Radiation Zone Convection Zone Photosphere- sunspots Chromosphere Transition Region Corona The Core is the layer that stores all of the sun's energy. The Radiation Zone transfers the energy that the Core passes. The Convection Zone carries the sun's energy to the surface. The Photosphere is the visible surface of the sun. The Chromosphere is a thin surface above the Photosphere. The Corona is the sun's atmospheric layer.
