What is the flash of light produced when a meteoroid passes through the earths atmosphere?
meteor ^v^
What produces streak of light as it enters the earths atmosphere?
meteor
What electromagnetic radiations are blocked by the atmosphere?
The Earth's atmosphere blocks most of the ultraviolet radiation from the Sun, as well as certain infrared wavelengths. This is important for protecting life on Earth from harmful radiation. Most radio waves, visible light, and some infrared and ultraviolet radiation are able to pass through the atmosphere.
What light has the easiest time getting through our atmosphere?
Visible light, particularly in the green spectrum, has the easiest time getting through Earth's atmosphere. This is because it is less likely to be scattered or absorbed by atmospheric particles compared to shorter (blue and violet) and longer (infrared) wavelengths. The transparency of the atmosphere to visible light allows it to reach the surface effectively, which is why we perceive sunlight as predominantly white or yellowish during the day.
Does ultraviolet light heat Earth's atmosphere the most or is it blue light?
Ultraviolet light does not directly heat Earth's atmosphere the most. Rather, visible light, including blue light, and infrared radiation from the Sun are primarily responsible for heating Earth's atmosphere through interactions with the surface and the gases in the atmosphere. Ultraviolet light mainly affects the ozone layer in the stratosphere, which plays a crucial role in protecting the Earth from harmful UV radiation.

How does infrared light behave when passing through glass?
Infrared light passes through glass because glass is transparent to infrared radiation. Glass does not absorb or reflect infrared light, allowing it to transmit through the material.
Transfer of energy from the sun to earth's surface?

What distance can Infrared Light travel?
As far as you like. For example it travels from the sun and gets through our atmosphere without much difficulty.
What kind of radiation passes through the atmosphere and reaches the earths surface?
Most of the visible light and some of the ultraviolet and infrared radiation from the sun pass through the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface. Other forms of radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, are mostly absorbed by the atmosphere and do not reach the surface.
What is the term for a metiorite which enters earths atmosphere?
The streak of light across the sky caused when a space rock falls through the atmosphere and is heated to incandescence is a "meteor".
How do visible light and infrared energy warm earth?
The Earth and atmosphere absorb the visible and infrared energy and this warms the earth.
Do visible and infrared light pass through the same types of materials?
No, visible light and infrared light do not pass through the same types of materials. Visible light can pass through materials like glass and water, while infrared light can pass through materials like plastic and some fabrics.

What displays light when burning up in earth's atmosphere?
Virtually anything falling through earths atmosphere from space will heat up to the point of incandescence, that is, it will "light up". A piece of rock, the remains of an old satellite, etc.
What prooduces a streak of light as it enters earths atmosphere?
A meteor or comet
