Some is absorbed by molecules in the atmosphere (such as ultraviolet absorption by ozone), some is absorbed on the surface, and some is reflected by clouds or the surface back into space. The surface will re-radiate much of the absorbed solar radiation as infrared (thermal) radiation, and some of this is then absorbed by atmospheric gases such as carbon dioxide and methane.
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.
it burns and keeps coming back then burning and coming back, it never stops, ever.
Once solar radiation reaches earth it is mostly absorbed by the ground and water. Some of the radiation is reflected back into the atmosphere.
Some stays in the Earth's atmosphere (reflected off the atmosphere/greenhouse layer) and some of the radiation gets out of the atmosphere.
Most of the solar radiation is absorbed by the Earth when it reaches the surface of the Earth.
Radiation is energy that comes from a source and travels through some material or through space.Since there is Vacuum( empty space) between earth and the sun, Light travels using radiation....Hope it helped! :)
Energy from the sun travels to the earth's surface is brought here by electromagnetic radiation. Once the radiation reaches the planet, most of it is converted to heat.
Radiation transfers heat from one object to another. It does not require any particles unlike conduction and convection. Radiation travels in the form of electromagnetic waves.
some of the radiation is absorbed in the atmosphere
terestrial
yes as radiation travels from the sun through a vacuum to earth
The Sun emits its radiations in all directions, not specifically towards Earth. Some of the radiation just happens to come in this direction.
No, heat travels from the sun to earth by radiation.
Radiation!
Radiation.
Electromagnetic radiation (heat, light, UV, X rays) mainly.
Energy from the sun travels to the earth's surface is brought here by electromagnetic radiation. Once the radiation reaches the planet, most of it is converted to heat.

Yes, radiant energy or radiation
