The majority of the energy that heats Earth's atmosphere comes from the sun. Solar radiation, particularly in the form of visible light, is absorbed by the Earth's surface and then re-radiated as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as water vapor and carbon dioxide, trap some of this infrared radiation, leading to the warming of the atmosphere. This process, known as the greenhouse effect, is crucial for maintaining Earth's temperature within a habitable range.
What else can I help you with?
Most of the energy that heats earths atmosphere is visible light?
no it's infared radition
Most of the energy that heats earth's atmosphere is?
Most of the energy that heats Earth's atmosphere comes from the sun. Solar radiation warms the Earth's surface, which then radiates heat back into the atmosphere, creating temperature variations and weather patterns.
Most of the solar energy reaching planet Earth and its atmosphere is absorbed by what?
earths surface
Which form of frequency spectrum best describes the method of energy transfer that most solar energy takes as it comes into earths atmosphere?
The solar energy that reaches the Earth's atmosphere follows the electromagnetic spectrum, with most of it falling within the visible and near-infrared region. This energy is predominantly in the form of shortwave radiation, which gets absorbed by the Earth's surface, heats it up, and then gets re-radiated as longwave infrared radiation back into the atmosphere.
What source of energy evaporates the most water from Earths surface?
Solar energy is the primary source of energy that drives the evaporation of water from Earth's surface. Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate and enter the atmosphere as water vapor. Wind and temperature also play a role in the rate of evaporation.
Most solar energy that reaches earth's atmosphere is absorbed by whtat?
Most solar energy that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the surface of the Earth, such as the land, oceans, and vegetation. This absorption heats up the Earth's surface and is then radiated back into the atmosphere as heat energy.
Can all of the earths energy find its way out of earths atmosphere?
No. Most of Earth's stored energy is within matter and it will not "find its way out of earths atmosphere" on it's own. The only energy that leaves Earth is radiant energy (some heat, light, radio energy, etc) or matter that is thrown out of the atmosphere by cosmic collisions. Some particles and element (e.g. hydrogen) may also be lost to space as Earth orbits our sun.
Is most of the earths atmosphere covered with oxygen?
no
When earths surface is heated it radiates most of the energy back into the atmosphere as ultraviolet radiation?
Not as ultraviolet; the radiation is emitted as infrared radiation.
What is most responsible for the pressure in the earths atmosphere?
The weight.
In which layer of the atmosphere does most of earths weather?
the troposphere
What is the most abundant gas earths atmosphere?
Nitrogen
