Which type of climate receives the most intense solar energy?
Tropical Climate because it receives a lot of the intense solar energy and it is also most likely to be found near the equator where the sun is directly giving solar energy.
Does the moon absorb light during the day and emit the light at night?
Technically no, but valid guess. At night, the sun's rays reflect off the moon and back on to Earth. The reason the light is so much dimmer is because a lot of light energy is lost in the process.
What happens when a space shuttle reenter the atmosphere?
It heats up a lot and becomes vey hot.
Is there more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than argon?
Yes, there is more carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere than argon. Carbon dioxide makes up about 0.04% of the atmosphere, while argon makes up about 0.93%.
Why does the sun appear dim at sunset?
At that time there is a lot more atmosphere between you and the sun than when the sun is overhead.
Why do meteors burn in the atmosphere?
When they crash into the atmosphere with anywhere between 10 and 70 kilometers/second, there is a lot of energy involved.
Why have your strawberry plant more leaves than fruit?
Because the plant needs the leaves to absorb sunlight and turn it into energy, it takes a lot of energy to produce the fruit, so it needs a lot of leaves to produce that energy.
In terms of energy why is water used in cooling systems?
Water has a height specific heat, meaning it can absorb a lot of heat energy per kilogram.
What is the emissivity of the sun and how does it impact the transfer of energy in the Earth's atmosphere?
The emissivity of the sun is nearly 1, meaning it emits a lot of energy. This energy is absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere, warming it up. This process plays a key role in the transfer of energy within the Earth's atmosphere, influencing weather patterns and climate.
How the atmosphere heated?
A small part of the heating of the atmosphere is directly from the sun. A lot of heating near the surface is done through conduction from land or water that has been warmed by the sun.
Name a substance that needs a lot of energy to raise its temperature?
Water is a substance that requires a lot of energy to raise its temperature because it has a high specific heat capacity. This means it can absorb a significant amount of heat energy before its temperature increases.
How can wind make power?
If you have wind mills, the wind can give a lot of electricity because the mill will absorb the amount of potential energy needed to produce the amount of kinetic energy.
What prevents all of the sun energy from getting to earth surface?
Much of it is absorbed by the atmosphere. The ozone layer absorbs a lot of it.
How much does bounty paper towel absorb?
It does a lot It does a lot
Why does the mass of satellite's have to be small?
It costs a lot of energy (and therefore money) to put a massive object into detail. The amount of energy depends directly on the satellite's mass.
How might friction affect an object from outer space entering your atmosphere?
Friction slows objects down, changing kinetic energy into thermal energy. Usually an object from outer space will be travelling very, very fast as it enters the atmosphere and the friction (from the air resistance) will slow it down a lot. This energy is converted to heat, which is why objects can burn up in the atmosphere.
Can cows absorb sunlight?
Not sunLIGHT, but heat energy from the sun, especially if they have a black hide or dark-coloured hide. If they have a light-coloured hide (or hair) some of the sun's energy will still be absorbed, but a lot of it will be reflected.
