Why the Sun emits most of its energy in the form of visible light?

It doesn't. Visible light is only a tiny part of the energy spectrum of the sun's emissions. However the peak point of this very wide distribution occurs in the visible part of the spectrum, which is a consequence of the process of "natural selection" in the development of eyes in living creatures. The peak intensity point is itself determined by the temperature of the surface of the sun. If the sun had been a bit cooler, the peak point would have been in the infra red, and our eyes would be sensitive to that, with curious results.

The energy that warms Earth's surface comes primarily in the form of?
Visible light from the Sun
Which form of electromagnetic radiation has more energy than visible light waves have?
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation has more energy than visible light waves.
What is a visible form of energy?
visible light waves
What light energy?
Light energy is a form of energy that is associated with visible light.Examples: The sun, , a lamp, or a lightbulb,, they are all forms of visible light.
Light is a visible form of radiant?
energy
What is the form of energy you can see?
Visible light
When a electron returns to its stable or ground state is emits?
When an electron returns to its ground state it emits energy in the form of light.
How is light bulb a form of energy?
A light bulb IS not a form of energy, it CONVERTS energy. A lightbulb converts electricity into heat and visible light.
What is light is light energy?
Light energy is a form of energy that is associated with visible light.Examples: The sun, , a lamp, or a lightbulb,, they are all forms of visible light.
How is the sun part of energy?
The sun emits energy in the form of radiation (light & atomic particles). This energy is crucial to life on our planet.
What form of energy is absorbed by the palisade cell?
Visible light.
When a light bulb is glowing which form of energy goes into the bulb Which form of energy leave it?
The energy that goes in is electrical energy; the energy that leaves it is visible light, as well as heat.
What energy is a light?
light energy is any visible form of energy that forms part of the electomagnetic spectum it is therefore transmitted as any form of electromagnetic wave.
What causes an atom to release energy in the form of visible wavelengths of light?
When an atom releases energy in the form of visible wavelengths of light, it indicates that an electron in that atom has gone from an excited energy level, back down to a lower energy level.
