Why does it take millions of years for energy from the sun that moves in every direction to leave the radiation layer?

Because it is so far away.

Does sunlight come in longwave radiation or shortwave?
Wein's Displacement Law explains the difference between long and shortwave radiation. Shortwave radiation has shorter, more high energy wavelengths (stronger with less distance to travel) while longwave radiation travels farther, but has less energy. Earth's radiation is 20 times longer than the maximum solar radiation, so it is referred to as longwave, while solar energy is referred to as shortwave radiation.
Why craters are circular?
An object impacting a terrestrial surface will tend to throw out ejecta pretty much evenly in all directions. It's energy isn't restricted in any direction, so it goes in every direction (a circular pattern).
What direction does the sun face?
The Sun is ball-shaped: it faces every direction.
What process makes the sun's heat light?
I assume you mean convert the sun's heat energy into light, this process occurs in almost every material in the universe, including yourself, the sun's 'heat' is merely particles bouncing off one another very fast like thousands of bouncing balls in a huge container that is shaken up, when these particles collide they sometimes give off a bit of energy, we call this energy electromagnetic radiation. You can't see most radiation as it is beyond the visible spectrum, infra-red is the most common radiation emmited by hot objects, this is the radiation used to see in the dark by night vision goggles. When objects get very hot like the surface of the sun, they begin to emit higher energy radiation, like visible light, if you've ever seen a glowing hot metal you've seen first hand how a high temperature object can emit visible radiation. The process howver is very complicated and is still not fully understood but to simply it each particle has an outer shell made of electrons, when these shells of electrons collide they change energy states and release bits of radiation as they change energy states, for a full explanation i would recommend you read about quamtum physics and electron energy states.
Why rainbow bent?
Because AT the location of every water droplet in the air, the anglebetween the direction to the sun and the direction to your eye mustbe the same. The only shape in which that's possible at every pointis a circle.
What is chi-radiation?
Chi radiation is the ability to radiate or push out you chi i every direction.
From which direction do you receive background radiation from the big bang?
From every direction that isn't blocked by the earth. The amplitude of the background radiation is almost exactly constant from all directions.
Why is solar energy transfered to earth by radiation?
That is because every object emits electromagnetic radiation, according to its temperature.That is because every object emits electromagnetic radiation, according to its temperature.That is because every object emits electromagnetic radiation, according to its temperature.That is because every object emits electromagnetic radiation, according to its temperature.
Which way does radiant energy travel?
It travels in every direction
How can electrical energy be transfered?
By (em) radiation, every signal you pick up by radio, TV, cell phone, etc. carries energy.
What energy comes from the sun reaches to the earth?
Electromagnetic energy of every kind. This includes light, heat, ultraviolet, gamma rays, x-rays and every possible frequency of electromagnetic radiation.
How electric energy can be transfered wirelessly?
By (em) radiation, every signal you pick up by radio, TV, cell phone, etc. carries energy.
Will IPv6 have enough address for the future?
IPv6 has millions of millions of millions of millions of addresses for every living person - it is hard to imagine how this might NOT be enough for the foreseeable future.IPv6 has millions of millions of millions of millions of addresses for every living person - it is hard to imagine how this might NOT be enough for the foreseeable future.IPv6 has millions of millions of millions of millions of addresses for every living person - it is hard to imagine how this might NOT be enough for the foreseeable future.IPv6 has millions of millions of millions of millions of addresses for every living person - it is hard to imagine how this might NOT be enough for the foreseeable future.
How much amount of solar energy by earth every day?
The average solar radiation hitting the planet is considered to be about 352 watts/meter squared. Total radiation hitting our atmosphere is about 1366 watts/meter squared. The rest of this energy is absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere.
Where is radiation used in every day life?
Prime example of radiation in our every day life is the heat we get from the sun (mostly radiation heat)
Which radiation rays carries maximum energy?
The radiation from the brightest or highest-power source carries the maximum energy.The shorter the wavelength of the radiation is, the more energy each photon carries.But you can easily radiate a lot more energy in long-wave radiation than in shorter-waveradiation, by simply radiating more photons.Example:Energy in 1 red-light photoncompared toenergy of 1 radio-wave photon at 2.5 GHz . . . . . 160,000 times as much energyHowever . . .Energy radiated inside a microwave oven at 2.5 GHz . . . 1,200 to 2,000 joules every secondEnergy radiated by a single red LED . . . . . 0.05 joule every second
How If 60 J of energy are available for every 15 C of charge what is the voltage?
Voltage has the dimensions of energy / charge, in SI units, J/C. Depending on what you mean by "energy ... available", you can simply divide the energy by the charge. If there is a certain number of volts between two points - for example 10 volts - that means that every coulomb of charge gains 10 joules of energy in one direction, or loses 10 joules of energy in the other direction.
