The suns energy is generated at its?
the suns energy is generated at its core. The energy that is produced by the sun is generated by fusion.
Does the suns energy reflect back into space?
Yes. Indeed one proposed solution for the global warming suffered by our planet is to increase the amount of energy reflected back into space by increasing our own oceans ability to reflect it.
Energy that is reflected from the atmosphere is?
Energy that is reflected from the atmosphere is called albedo. With albedo, sunlight is reflected which prevents solar energy from being absorbed in the ground.
How does plantae get their food?
they get it from the suns energy
What is the process that transfers the suns energy the rest of the way to the suns surface?
radiation carried by convection.
Do the suns rays get reflected or absorbed by energy?
Neither, they ARE energy.
Why is 6 of the suns energy scattered or reflected into space?
why
What happens to the suns energy that is reflected?
It goes back into space.
How much of suns energy is absorbed or reflected by clouds?
45%
When the suns rays strike the earths surface energy is absorbed or reflected?
absorbed
What percentage of the suns energy is scattered or reflected back into space what causes this loss of solar energy?
it's either 40% or 60%
What happens to the suns energy that does reach earth?
Some is absorbed by the earths air water and soil. The remainder is reflected.
How do you define solar energy?
Solar energy can be the suns rays, or it can be space weather. But mostly it's the energy Earth gets from the sun for radiation or it can be reflected back into space.
How is the energy from the sun reflected by the atmosphere?
The Suns rays reflect of the Earth, then off the outer shell of the atmosphere, temporarily trapping sunlight and heat.
What percentage of the suns radiation is reflected by the clouds?
5%
What happens to the Suns energy when it reaches the earths surface?
What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.
Does photosynthesis need the suns heat energy or the suns light energy?
Light energy.
