What else can I help you with?
What is the transfer of energy from the sun to earths surface?
Because of the heat and light
Most of the solar energy reaching planet Earth and its atmosphere is absorbed by what?
earths surface
What percentage of the solar energy the reaches the outer atmosphere is absorbed at the earths surface?
50%
How does solar energy help the earth?
solar energy provides a heat source for all living things on earth. we also transfer solar heat into electricity and other types of energy, using solar panels. however, only a portion of the suns energy makes it to earths surface because the ionosphere reflects some of the rays back into space. only half of the incoming ratiation from the sun makes it to the earths surface.
Which type of light energy found in solar radation is most likely to reach the earths surface?
visible light
What happens to solar energy as it enters earths atmosphere?
it gets absorbed by the ground
A delay between Earths absorption of solar energy and an increase in temperature makes the warmest part of a day?
Afternoon
What energy resources are found above the earths surface?
Some examples of energy resources found above Earth's surface include solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower. These resources provide renewable and sustainable sources of energy that can be harnessed for electricity generation and other purposes.
When solar radiation enters the atmosphere most of the solar radiation is absorbed by the earths surface. However about 6 percent of the solar radiation is blank by the earths surface?
When solar radiation enters the atmosphere, most of it is absorbed by the Earth's surface. However, about 6 percent of the solar radiation is reflected back into space by the Earth's surface. This reflection occurs mainly from surfaces like ice, snow, and water, which have high albedo, meaning they reflect a significant portion of incoming solar energy.
Why do the poles receive the less solar energy than the equator does?
Because the middle of the earths surface is the hottest on earth and the equator is right in the middle and the poles is at the end of the earths surfaces
What map shows three dimensions of earths surface?
topographic map
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.
