The radiation zone is the "middle part" of the interior of the Sun. It is adjacent to the core. In this zone, energy travels between the atoms as photons of gamma radiation. Above the radiative zone is the convective zone. Scientists estimate that core energy takes as long as 170,000 years to travel through the dense matter of the radiative zone.
According to NASA, the Sun's radiative zone begins about 108,125 miles from the center of the Sun and ends about 302,750 miles from the center of the sun. So the radiative zone makes up 32 percent of the Sun's volume and 48 percent of its mass.
The exterior of the Sun, where radiation again occurs, is called the photosphere. In some larger stars, the outer layer is radiative and is substantially thicker.
What else can I help you with?
What is the layer that surrounds the radiation zone of the sun called?
well there is n real name forthe layer outside the sun. you culd say i is lik the ozon layer protecting o eart from the suns rays, bu th difrence is they are completely opposite of on anotherso the ozne layerprtects the earth and keeps in the air a c02. but the suns layer outputs the bad stuff like radiation and such but the ozone protects us from that radiation and the space outside the earth
What is the temperature of the suns radiation zone?
The suns convection zone is 2 million degrees kelvin, unlike the radiartion which is 5 million degrees.
What percentage of the suns radiation is reflected by the clouds?
5%
What is the meaning of radiation zone?
The radiation zone is a region in the interior of a star where energy is transported outward by electromagnetic radiation, primarily in the form of photons. In this zone, energy is carried through the star's layers by the absorption and re-emission of photons. The radiation zone is located between the core and the convection zone of a star.
Which planet has an atmosphere that protects life from the suns radiation?
The EARTH!!!!
What is your suns temperature?
Photosphere: About 6000 K Corona: About 5 million K Core: About 16 million K Convection Zone: About 2 million Celsius Radiation Zone: varies
Is it radiation that when the sun makes you warm?
it is the suns radiation
What is radiation in water cycle?
the radiation is the suns heat
How do the suns heat get to the earth?
Radiation
What is the radis of the sun?
nobody knows exactly how large the radiation zone is. instead, people consider that some space cameras have picked up signs of the radiation zones duties.... it is known to cool the suns core and the bursts that come out of it.
How much radiation and heat can a seed handle?
They can only survive the suns radiation.

What is the temperature of the suns radiation zone?
The suns convection zone is 2 million degrees kelvin, unlike the radiartion which is 5 million degrees.
What is the layer of the atmosphere exposed to the suns radiation?
The Thermosphere
What percentage of the suns radiation is reflected by the clouds?
5%
How is heat distributed in the surface zone of the zone?
By the SUNS ENERGY. (Which makes it hotter and hotter.)
