Our atmoshere can protect Earth from solar energy,but the atmoshere gets weaker every time it happens.Most of the solar energy doesn't pass ,so does and that's how we get sun burns and skin cancer from ultra violet rays.

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 majority of the sun's energy before it ever reaches Earth?

The majority of the sun's energy is absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere before it reaches the surface.


What happens to all of the energy that the earth receives from the sun?

Energy can be scattered or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere. Aerosols are dust, soot, sulfates and nitric oxides. When aerosols absorb energy, the atmosphere becomes warmer. When aerosols scatter energy, the atmosphere is cooled.


Where does the energy in the earth's atmosphere originate?

The energy in the earth's atmosphere primarily originates from the Sun. The Sun heats the earth and the water, heating the atmosphere.


What happens to that energy from the sun that is absorbed by earth surface?

Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.


Does the atmosphere absorb a lot of energy directly from the sun?

No, most of the sun's energy that reaches the Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the surface of the Earth. The atmosphere does absorb some of the energy but it is relatively small compared to the energy absorbed by the Earth's surface.


What happens to energy from the Sun when it reaches Earth's atmosphere and surfaces?

What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.


What happens to most of the sun radiant energy?

Most of the Sun's radiant energy is absorbed by Earth's atmosphere and surface, where it is then converted into heat. Some of it is reflected back into space by clouds and the Earth's surface.


How does energy transfer from the sun to Earth and to the atmosphere?

it goes throgh the atmosphere and enter the other plsnts to get to the energy that we need on earth


What happens to the energy from the suns rays that reach earth?

As the sun's rays heat up the earth, the radiation hits the atmosphere. Then the radiation heads back to the sun.


What happens to the sun's energy as it is reflected back from the earth?

When the sun's energy is reflected back from the Earth, it can be absorbed by the atmosphere, clouds, or surface. Some of the energy gets trapped and warms the Earth, contributing to the greenhouse effect. The rest is radiated back towards space.


What happens to the energy provided by the sun as it passes through the atmosphere in the form of radiation?

As solar radiation passes through Earth's atmosphere, some of it is absorbed by gases, clouds, and particles in the atmosphere. The remainder reaches the Earth's surface, where it is absorbed and transformed into heat energy. This energy is essential for driving Earth's climate system and supporting life on the planet.
