What happens when sunlight hits a surface?
The sunlight will be absorbed by the surface.If the surface is a mirror,lesser light will be absorbed.More will be reflected. If the surface is black,more light will be absorbed.
What must be equal to the amount of sunlight reflected plus the amout absorbed?
The amount of sunlight reflected plus the amount absorbed must be equal to the amount of sunlight that hits the surface (incident sunlight) in order to account for all the incoming solar radiation.
What happens to absobed sunlight?
When sunlight is absorbed by an object, it is converted into thermal energy, which causes the object to heat up. This is why objects can feel warm after being exposed to sunlight. In some materials, absorbed sunlight can also trigger chemical reactions or generate electricity, depending on the properties of the material.
What are ultraviolet rays changed into after their absorbed by the earth?
The UV rays are absorbed by the ozone. They change into nothing.
What does sunlight striking a blacktop highway change into?
When sunlight strikes a blacktop highway, it is absorbed by the dark surface and converted into heat. This heat is then either absorbed by the asphalt or reflected back into the atmosphere.
What happens to the sunlight that doesn't get absorbed in the air?
Sunlight that is not absorbed in the air is typically scattered or reflected by particles in the atmosphere. Some of it may reach the Earth's surface, while the rest continues into space.
What happens to the sunlight that hits the surface of the Earth?
Sunlight that hits the Earth's surface is absorbed by the Earth. It is then reflected back.
Does sunlight have to be absorbed by plants before photosynthesis can take place?
Yes, sunlight needs to be absorbed by chlorophyll in plant cells for photosynthesis to occur. Chlorophyll captures the energy from sunlight, which is then used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
What happens to sunlight that hits earth's surface?
When sunlight hits Earth's surface, it can be absorbed, reflected, or scattered. Some of the sunlight is absorbed by the ground, causing it to heat up. The rest is reflected back into the atmosphere or scattered in different directions.
Why is it hot in the desert?
the sunlight gets absorbed better in an open space
How is Sunlight reached in during Photosynthesis?
Light energy absorbed by chlorophyll.
Which is an enviromental factor that affects skin color in humans?
amount of sunlight absorbed :)
