They're ... radiated. Outward. Some of them get absorbed by stuff (trees, buildings, clouds, the atmosphere itself), some of them get reflected by stuff (trees, buildings, clouds, the atmosphere itself), some of them get scattered by stuff (you know the drill), some of them make it out of the atmosphere.

How are ultraviolet rays from the sun able to reach Earth's surface?
the atmostphere
Are infrared rays absorbed by the ozone layer and do they protect earth?
The ozone layer performs a unique role in absorbing UV-B from our Sun, a role no other common gas performs. Additionally, ozone absorbs uniquely a band of far infrared radiation, that otherwise has absolutely no harmful effects on life on Earth. Infrared presents no risk to life, but can serve to keep Earth warm. yes or no?
Rays in electromagnetic spectrum?
Radio waves, Infrared rays, Visible white light, Ultra violet rays, X-rays, Gamma rays
What does belong in the electromagnetic spectrum?
uhm I guess infrared rays
Is a telescope on a satellite made to detect x-rays?
Some of them are. Also, to detect other radiation that doesn't reach Earth, or hardly reaches it - like infrared for example.Some of them are.

put these greenhouse effect events in order starting with lights origin?
1. Incident infarred radiation is blocked2. Visible and UV rays heat Earth3. Earth radiates infrared radiation4. infrared radiation is blocked and heats Earth
When the earth is warm it radiates its own rays of heat what are they called?
Infra-red rays.
Are infrared rays absorbed by the ozone layer which protects the earth?
Far infrared rays are, corresponding to lower temperatures, but not near infrared which corresponds to warmer temps.
How do infrared rays and ultraviolet rays affect Earth?
global warming i guess?!
In which type of rays is heat radiation back into the atmosphere by the earth?
infrared rays
Ozone gas in earth's atmosphere absorbs infrares rays from sun?
Ozone gas in earth's atmosphere absorbs UV rays. It does not absorb infrared rays.
Which kind of light rays causes the earth to get the warmest?
Infrared Heat.
What space objects give out ir rays?
The earth, the sun, stars, and galaxies emit infrared rays.
What happens to sunlight hits earth surface?
It gets absorbed by the surface, reflected, and even radiated back as infrared rays where it is absorbed by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases can stop the transmission of this type of ray.?
Greenhouse gases stop the transmission of infrared rays. These are the rays which carry heat away from the earth, and therefore an increase in greenhouse gases results in global warming.
How are ultraviolet rays from the sun able to reach Earth's surface?
the atmostphere
When did the infrared rays that reach the earth leave the sun?
About 8 minutes ago.
