Is it convection conduction or radiation when the inside of the car heats in the sun?
It is radiation. Sunlight enters the car and heats up material inside.
What is a visible ray?
"Visible" electromagnetic radiation is radiation with wavelengths between roughly 390 to 750 nanometers. (0.000350 to 0.000750 millimeters) -- If electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength in this range enters your eye, you know it, because the retina of your eye responds to these wavelengths. -- If radiation enters your eye but its wavelength is not in this range, you don't notice it. -- If there is radiation in the neighborhood with wavelength in this range but it doesn't enter your eye, then you don't notice it. (If a flashlight shines a spot on the wall across the room, you don't see the shaft of light on its way across the room. You see it only after the light hits the wall and some of it bounces off the wall and into your eyes. )
What is the change of direction when a wave enters a different medium called?
Refraction
What is the measure of how much a ray of light that bends when it enters the material?
This is called refraction.
What is a term that means reflected light?
The light which enters is called the incident ray and the reflected light is called the reflected ray.
Can feel radiation?
It is a sick feeling. As the radiation enters your body it can sting and kill you.
What is the difference between direct and indirect global warming potential?
They are two types of radiation 1. Direct radiation 2.Diffused radiation The solar radiation reaching the surface of atmosphere of earth is known as extra terrestrial radiation. In which some part of radiation directly enters the earth atmosphere and some part enters the earth atmosphere by reflecting from clouds, gases , aerosols etc., The radiation which directly enters the earth atmosphere is known as "Direct radiation" The radiation which enters the earth atmosphere by reflecting from clouds, gases, aerosols is known as diffused radiation. In materiology the sum of both Direct radiation and Diffused radiation is called total radiation.
How does energy from the sun enters the atmosphere?
The energy from the sun enters the atmsphere as radiation. This radiation is tranmited to the earth in the form of short waves of radiation. These waves hit the ground.Through radiation.
What is avian ingestion?
Avian ingestion is the collision of a bird and an aircraft in motion, in which a bird enters a jet of an airplane.
Is it convection conduction or radiation when the inside of the car heats in the sun?
It is radiation. Sunlight enters the car and heats up material inside.
What enters the eye to help you see?
Electromagnetic radiation (light) limited to the narrow visible spectrum.
What two things can happen to the energy that enters the atmosphere?
more radiation ; bad living conditions for the people of earth
What is one who enters by force without permission called?
A person who enters by force without permission is commonly called a trespasser or an intruder.
What is the earths sunblock?
The ozone layer acts as a sort of 'sunblock' for the earth, limiting the amount of UV radiation that enters the atmosphere.
What two features of earth protect us from the sun's radiation?
strong magnetic field deflects charged particle radiation around the earthozone layer absorbs much of the ultraviolet electromagnetic radiation as it enters the atmosphere
Where the river enters the sea is called the?
The mouth
What type of radiation enters earths atmosphere?
The UV radiation that reaches the Earth’s surface is mostly UVA and some UVB. Almost half the daytime total of the more harmful UVB radiation is received between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Even on a cloudy day, you can be sunburned by UVB radiation.
