Why is only 50 percent of the solar energy that reaches the outer atmosphere absorbed by Earths surface?
The Earth looks bright - thus much of the light reaching Earth is reflected back into space.
Does the Earth produce its own light?
The earth does not produce its own light but it reflects the light rays from the sun that reaches its surface.
Is the property of color concerned with the amount of light a surface reflects or doesn't reflect How light or dark the surface is?
Neither of those things. Only the color of the light before it even reaches the reflecting surface.
Which type of light energy found in solar radation is most likely to reach the earths surface?
visible light
What is the transfer of energy from the sun to earths surface?
Because of the heat and light
A meteoriod that has reached earths atmosphere?
A piece of space debris that falls to earth is commonly known as a meteorite. When knocked out of orbit during collisions with other space material, meteorites can travel through the atmosphere and make landfall.
How long does it take for light to travel from the sun the Earths surface?
8 minutes or 500 seconds(approx.)
Does the moon gets more light from the sun than the earth does?
Since the moon does not have an atmosphere, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the moon is more intense than the sunlight that reaches the surface of the Earth after passing through the Earth's atmosphere.
What kind of radiation passes through the atmosphere and reaches the earths surface?
Most of the visible light and some of the ultraviolet and infrared radiation from the sun pass through the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface. Other forms of radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, are mostly absorbed by the atmosphere and do not reach the surface.
When is an object can be seen?
An object can be seen when light reflects off of its surface and reaches our eyes. This happens when there is sufficient light in the environment for our eyes to detect the object.
Whats light transmission?
Light transmission is the ability of light to travel through a medium without being scattered or absorbed. When the light reaches a surface of material, this can absorb the entire portions of the light.
