yes
When is the sun at its lowest in the sky?
The suns rays are most direct around or at the equator.
Primary source of the suns energy is?
The primary source of the suns energy is nuclear fusion of hydrogen. Nuclear fusion occurs in the core of the Earth.
What is a solar flair from space?
a solar flair is right near the top of the sun and passes on into space and reaches earth
How does solar energy reach earth?
through the mantlethrough the suns rays
The suns energy reaches the earth as what type of energy?
radiant
How much of the suns energy reaches the earth's surface?
its about just 1%
About 50 percent of the suns energy that reaches earth is what by land and what which becomes heated?
yes
The amount of the suns energy that reaches earth at a given time and place is?
Insolation
What form does suns energy have when it reaches earth?
The Sun's energy is given out mainly as "electromagnetic radiation". Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation. Heat is the main form the Sun's energy has when it reaches Earth, particularly the Earth's surface.
Does most of suns energy reach earth in light energy?
it does reach the earth in light energy.
What happens to almost half of the suns energy that reaches the earth?
i think instead of energy,u meant light.if that's the case,most of it is lost and some is absorbed the suspended particulate matter.
What happens when the earth's atmosphere traps energy from the sun?
The suns energy when it reaches the earth's atmosphere encounters earth's plasma and three things happens. Some of the energy is reflected , some is absorbed and the rest is transmitted to the earth.
What happens to the Suns when energy reaches Earth?
It feeds the plants which gos in the food cycle and gos to the animal's then to us people and food chain!
How does the suns energy travle to earth?
Most of it travels to Earth via light, and similar electromagnetic waves.
What are the steps the suns energy goes thourgh the reach earth?
In order to get to Earth (through a vacuum) it must be converted into radiation. Note that some energy reaches Earth as the "solar wind - mostly charged particles. This is a very small percentage.
What percentage of the suns energy that reaches the earth is absorbed by earth surface?
About 50 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. In addition, about 9 percent is reflected.About 22 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is reflected by clouds and the atmosphere.About 19 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by clouds and the atmosphere.
