What else can I help you with?
What is the process by which the earth atmosphere absorbs heat?
sublimation
What is the process by which gases in the atmosphere absorbs and reradiates heat?
I am not really sure
How is earths air heated?
Well, the sun gives off energy (or heat). When it hits the Earth's atmosphere, it absorbs that heat or energy. the energy is then trapped in the atmosphere. This is called the "green house effect."
How does the atmosphere balance the unequal heating of earths surface?
The atmosphere helps to balance the unequal heating of Earth's surface by redistributing heat through convection and wind patterns. This process involves transferring heat from warmer areas to cooler areas, helping to regulate temperature across the globe. The atmosphere also absorbs and reemits solar radiation, which further contributes to stabilizing Earth's temperature.
What in the earth's atmosphere absorbs heat?
Greenhouse gases.
How is the atmosphere near earths surface heated from below?
The atmosphere near Earth's surface is heated from below primarily through the process of conduction. This occurs as the Earth's surface absorbs solar radiation and heats up, transferring this heat to the adjacent air molecules through direct contact. As the air warms, it becomes less dense and rises, creating convective currents that distribute the heat throughout the atmosphere.
How much heat does the atmosphere gain as the result of vaporization?
The atmosphere gains heat when water vapor evaporates into the air. This process absorbs heat energy from the surrounding environment, cooling it down. The amount of heat gained by the atmosphere is dependent on factors such as temperature, humidity, and wind speed.
What is the process of trapping heat by gases in the earths atmosphere?
The process of trapping heat by gases in the Earth's atmosphere is known as the greenhouse effect. Certain gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, allow sunlight to enter the atmosphere but trap heat, preventing it from escaping back into space. This leads to an overall warming of the Earth's surface temperature.
HOW DOES SUN ENERGY AFFECT EARTHS ATMOSPHERE?
Heat!!
How does the Suns energy affect earths atmosphere?
Heat!!
How is earth atmosphere warmed evenly?
Energy is transferred between the earths surface and the atmosphere via conduction, convection, and radiation. Conduction is the process by which heat energy is transmitted through contact with neighboring molecules.
What heats earths atmosphere?
The sun heats the atmosphere. Solar radiation largely passes through the atmosphere and warms the surface of the earth. The earth then radiates heat up into the lower levels of the atmosphere where greenhouse gases warm. The warmed greenhouse gases then continue to radiate heat in all directions warming the atmosphere and again the earth's surface.
