What else can I help you with?
What is the term for solar radiation that reaches the earth's surface?
The solar radiation that reaches the earths surface from the sun is called INSOLATION
What are the differences in the amount of solar radiation absorbed by surfaces with high versus low albedo?
Surfaces with high albedo reflect more solar radiation, while surfaces with low albedo absorb more solar radiation.
Interaction between the solar radiation and the ionoshere cause what?
Interaction between solar radiation and the ionosphere can lead to the formation of the auroras (northern and southern lights) due to the excited particles in the ionosphere emitting light. It can also affect radio communications by influencing the propagation of radio waves.
Is there any radiation on the Moon from the Sun?
Yes, the Moon is exposed to solar radiation, including radiation in the form of sunlight and solar wind particles. However, the lack of an atmosphere on the Moon means that these forms of radiation are not filtered or absorbed, resulting in a harsh radiation environment on the surface.
What build material would absorb the most solar radiation?
A black, matte surface such as asphalt or dark rock would absorb the most solar radiation as it has a high absorptivity and low reflectivity, meaning it can efficiently convert incoming solar radiation into heat.
What is the major cause of heating and cooling of your atmosphere?
The major cause is the presence or absence of solar radiation i.e. sunlight.
What are the types of energy and what are their uses?
WHAT IS SOLAR AND THE USE Solar- Radiation from the sun that can produce heal , generate electricity or cause chemical reaction.
What solar radiation is the most powerful?
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the most powerful form of solar radiation because it has the highest energy levels. It can have both beneficial and harmful effects on living organisms, including the ability to cause sunburn and skin damage.
How does airborne particle pollution cause global cooling?
The airborne particles reflect solar radiation.
Intercepted solar radiation is called?
Insolation is intercepted solar radiation.
Another word for Incoming Solar Radiation?
incoming solar radiation = insolation
How do animals get solar radiation by eating plants?
The plants absorbs the solar radiation and energy.
What are 3 types of solar flares?
X-class flares: the strongest solar flares with the potential to cause radio blackouts and long-lasting radiation storms. M-class flares: moderate solar flares that can cause brief radio blackouts near the poles and minor radiation storms. C-class flares: the weakest solar flares that typically have minimal impact on Earth but can still cause some radio interference.
What are gasses in the atmosphere that absorb solar radiation called?
The ozone gas absorbs UV rays. It is present as ozone layer.These atmospheric gases, also referred to as greenhouse gases, absorb solar radiation and cause a rise in temperature.
How do solar flares and sunspots affect the earth climate?
Solar flares release bursts of energy and radiation that can disrupt Earth's magnetic field and cause geomagnetic storms. Sunspots are cooler areas on the sun's surface that can affect solar radiation reaching Earth. Both solar flares and sunspots can influence the Earth's climate by affecting the amount of solar radiation received, potentially leading to changes in weather patterns and atmospheric processes.
What happens to most solar radiation when it reaches the surface of Earth what happens?
Most of the solar radiation is absorbed when it reaches the surface of the earth. Some of the solar radiation is also absorbed in the atmosphere.
Do the oceans release solar radiation?
Yes, solar radiation warms the surface of the ocean. Warmth rises from the ocean in the form of infrared radiation.
