Why doesn't all of the energy from the sun that enters the atmosphere reach the Earth?
The atmosphere reflects some of the energy back into space.
How the sun shines?
in straight lines towards the earth The sun shines light into the Earth's atmosphere and the atmosphere reflects it back onto the Earth to provide power, energy, heat, and light for us all to live.
What is the benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun?
The benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun is to keep Earth warm.
Does the moon absorbs the light from the sun?
Just like any other dark grey object, the moon absorbs most of the sunlight incident on it, and reflects the rest.
What is the name of the layer of the earths atmosphere that absorbs the majority of the potentially damaging ultraviolet from the sun?
Ozone
The Earth's surface absorbs more radiant energy from the sun than the atmosphere?
yes the earths surface absorbs more radiant energy from the sun than the atmosphere GOOD LUCK :)
Why doesn't all of the energy from the sun that enters the atmosphere reach the Earth?
The atmosphere reflects some of the energy back into space.
What things absorb energy in the Atmosphere?
there are plenty of things in the atmosphere that absorb energy. most obvious known is ozone that absorbs harmful UV rays from the sun. Also there is dust/dirt particles in the atmosphere that are so small that when a beam of light hits it, it reflects blue light giving the impression of a blue atmosphere.
What absorbs energy from the sun in the atmosphere.?
Ozone, water vapor, carbon dioxide, clouds, dust, and other gases absorb energy in the atmosphere.
What absorbs energy the sun in the atmosphere?
Ozone, water vapor, carbon dioxide, clouds, dust, and other gases absorb energy in the atmosphere.
Did you know Neptune is blue?
Yes, I did. Neptune is blue because the methane in the atmosphere absorbs the red light from the sun but reflects the blue light from the sun back into space.
How is earths air heated?
Well, the sun gives off energy (or heat). When it hits the Earth's atmosphere, it absorbs that heat or energy. the energy is then trapped in the atmosphere. This is called the "green house effect."
What absorbs energy from the sun in the atmosphere?
Ozone, water vapor, carbon dioxide, clouds, dust, and other gases absorb energy in the atmosphere.
What prevents all of the sun energy from getting to earth surface?
Much of it is absorbed by the atmosphere. The ozone layer absorbs a lot of it.
What get hotter in the sun a black cup with water or a white cup?
The black cup gets hotter. White reflects solar energy, black absorbs it.
What absorbs a portion of a radiation from the sun preventing it from reaching the earth's surface?
Generically the atmosphere absorbs portions of the Sun's radiation. In particular the Ozone layer absorbs a lot of UV radiations and of course water in the atmosphere (clouds) can blot out the Sun entirely.
Why did planet Neptune called a blue planet?
Neptune's atmosphere is made up of hydrogen, helium and methane. The methane in Neptune's upper atmosphere absorbs the red light from the sun but reflects the blue light from the sun back into space. This is why Neptune appears blue.
