How is earth atmosphere warmed evenly?
Energy is transferred between the earths surface and the atmosphere via conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through contact with neighboring molecules.
The energy from the sun is transferred to the earth by this process?
heat transfer
What process does the sun do to give heat to earth?
The energy of the sun is produced by the process of nuclear fusion, and a portion of this energy reaches the Earth in the form of sunlight, which heats the Earth.
How is heat energy normally transmitted through solids?
Heat energy is normally transmitted through solids by conduction.
How does heat from the Sun travel through the vacuum of space to the Earth?
The Sun's energy is transmitted by electromagnetic radiation, with most of the heat caused by ultraviolet radiation striking the Earth's surface. This heat is re-radiated by infrared radiation.
Will the earth begin to cool if the Earth received more energy than it transmitted over a long period of time?
no, Earth gets more energy than it gives off
What is process by which energy from the sun is trapped on earth surface and converted into heat?
The greenhouse effect
What process does the sun transfer heat energy by?
From sun to earth is totally via radiation.
Where on earth is heat energy from the strongest?
where on the earth is heat energy from the sun the strongest
Why the heat occupy space?
Heat is a form of energy. It can be transmitted through space but it does not occupy space.
What is an example of energy transmitted to you by radiation alone?
Infra Red or heat
How is heat energy usually transmitted through liquids and gases?
Heat energy is usually transmitted through liquids and gases by convection (warmer, less dense material rises, and sinks again when it cools).
