What else can I help you with?
What happens to the energy from the sun that is absorbed. by earths 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.
What brought molten rock to the surface?
pressure from the heat under the earths surface
Why earths interior is warmer than earths surface?
Earth's surface is free to radiate heat into space. The interior is not. The interior does transfer heat the the surface, but rather slowly. It is hot due to residual heat from Earth's formation and from the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements.
What happens to the energy from the sun that is absorved by earths surface?
The energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is converted into heat. This heat is then re-radiated back into the atmosphere, contributing to the Earth's overall temperature and driving weather patterns and climate systems.
How is heat from earths interior transferred to earths surface by convections?
Beneath the surface of the earth temperature remains the same. Within the Earth, irregular convection cells within the mantle transfer heat from the core to the surface of the planet. Volcanoes and earthquakes are two examples of heat transferring from the interior to the surface.
Hoe does air circulate around earths surface?
Heat from the sun
What do you think happens to temperature as you move from the earths surface to the center?
Temperature increases as you move from the Earth's surface towards the center. This is because the Earth's core is extremely hot due to the heat generated from radioactive decay and residual heat from the planet's formation.
What is the transfer of energy from the sun to earths surface?
Because of the heat and light
What is a surface expression of a plume of magma rising from a stationary source of heat in the mantle?
A hotspot volcano.
What describes the circular motion of heat below the earths surface?
I would call this convection currents in the mantle.
What happens to objects that enter the earths atmosphere?
the objects which enter the earths atmosphere are being pulled down towards the earths surface due to the earths gravity. And so it leads to falling falling of large objects from the space on the surface of the earth.
What is absorbed by green house gases?
Greenhouse gases absorb Infrared heat rising from the surface of the earth.
