Do ultraviolet waves get through earth's atmosphere?
Ultraviolet light does come through the Earth's atmosphere. These are the waves that cause sunburn, and are usually referred to as UV rays.
What gas in the atmosphere protects living things from ultraviolet light?
ozone
What produces streak of light as it enters the earths atmosphere?
meteor
How does the sun affect earths atmosphere?
The Sun sends photons of light particles and they get deflected by Earth's atmosphere
What is the Ozone and where is it in the atmosphere?
Ozone is a gas that exists naturally in the upper hemispheres of earth. It can be produced by ultraviolet light
Most of earths incoming is absorbed by ozone?
Ultraviolet light.
How does the ozone layer reduce the amount of ultraviolet radiation that reaches earths surface?
Ozone is (relatively) opaque to ultraviolet light.
Do ultraviolet waves get through earth's atmosphere?
Ultraviolet light does come through the Earth's atmosphere. These are the waves that cause sunburn, and are usually referred to as UV rays.
What is the roll of the ozone in the atmosphere?
It blocks much of the ultraviolet light from the sun.
What gas in the atmosphere protects living things from ultraviolet light?
ozone
How does the earths atmosphere protect organisms on the surface from the exposure to ultraviolet light?
The Earth's ozone layer blocks the ultraviolet light and protects the living organisms from the harmful UV rays. If it didn't, then everyone would burn up, we wouldn't be living, Earth would just be a rock floating through space.
What waves of radiation have more energy than waves of radiation that you can see?
Ultraviolet light, x-rays, and gamma rays carry more energy than visible light. (That's why ultraviolet light does nasty things to skin cells, and x-rays and gamma rays can penetrate solids.)
In which layer of the atmosphere is most of the ultraviolet light block?
The ozone layer (in the stratosphere).
In which layer of the atmosphere is the most of the ultraviolet light blocked?
The ozone layer (in the stratosphere).
In which of the layer of the atmosphere is most of the ultraviolet light blocked?
The ozone layer (in the stratosphere).
How so solar flares and their related of x-rays and ultraviolet light affect us on earth?
solar flares along with heat eject large no. of electrons due to this wave of electrons -waves of magnetism are produces which affect not only atmosphere but may also penetrate ozone layer and can affect our electronic appliances . x-rays and ultraviolet rays are high energy rays and if they penetrate the atmosphere and come in contact with human skin or animals can cause cancer and several mutations in humans.
What produces streak of light as it enters the earths atmosphere?
meteor
