What is the sun's energy made up of?
the suns energy comes from a hydrogen particle smashing in to another hydrogen particle and creates helium, however during this proses it causes heat and light energy and that is what the suns energy is made of
Most solar energy that reaches earth's atmosphere is absorbed by whtat?
Most solar energy that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the surface of the Earth, such as the land, oceans, and vegetation. This absorption heats up the Earth's surface and is then radiated back into the atmosphere as heat energy.
How do you get heat from the sun?
The sun's heat is radiated to the earth which enters the atmosphere. This heat warms up the surface but is then reflected back into space. But, as the atmosphere's amount of greenhouse gases is increasing, less heat is escaping from the earth's surface and is getting trapped. This results in what we call 'global warming' as the earth's temperature heats up.
What happens to energy when it reaches earth?
The energy that doesnt reach earth just goes out into the universe. Say that energy comes from the sun, well by the time it would've reached earth it would've spanned and expanded out so we (earth) would only receive a portion of the energy than what was previously released from the sun. :)
What does the sun provide us with?
*Life* ...... because without the suns rays warming up the planet the whole of the planet wouldn't have any heat to warm up the world making it lifeless!!The sun is like the heart of the world ! without it we would die!!!
What happens to the energy from the suns rays that reach earth?
As the sun's rays heat up the earth, the radiation hits the atmosphere. Then the radiation heads back to the sun.
What would happen if more of suns heat became trapped in earth's atmosphere and less heat was released into space?
The Earth would start to heat up and the ocean would evaporate.
What would happen if more suns heat became trapped in earth atmosphere and less heat was released into space?
The Earth would start to heat up and the ocean would evaporate.
Why can you feel the suns heat when there is no air between the sun and the earth?
The sun's heat reaches the Earth in the form of electromagnetic radiation, which can travel through the vacuum of space. When this radiation reaches Earth, it gets absorbed by the atmosphere and the Earth's surface, warming it up. This is why you can feel the sun's heat even though there is no air between the sun and the Earth.
What is the way the suns energy is absorbed by the earths surface and warms the earth?
The sun's energy reaches the Earth in the form of sunlight (solar radiation), which is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The surface then heats up and radiates heat back into the atmosphere, creating what is known as the greenhouse effect. Some of the heat is trapped by greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, which keeps the Earth warm enough to sustain life.
Does the energy from evaporation come from the sun?
Yes, it does because the suns rays heat the the water so that is can evaporate
Does the sun's light heat liquid on earth?
Yes. Anything that absorbs energy (light is energy) will heat up. Liquids will heat up when exposed to the illumination of the Sun.
What Would Happen If More Of The Suns Heat Became More Trapped in Earths Atmosphere and less heat was released in space?
The Earth would start to heat up and the ocean would evaporate.
What is the source of heat in geothermal energy?
The source of heat in geothermal energy comes from the Earth's core, where heat is produced through the decay of radioactive elements. This heat is transferred to the Earth's crust, warming up underground water reservoirs that can be tapped for energy production.
Does water heat up the least from the suns energy?
No, water is actually quite efficient at absorbing and retaining heat from the sun's energy due to its high specific heat capacity. This means it can absorb a lot of heat without a large increase in temperature compared to other substances.
The use of the sun's energy?
Solar panelsTrap heat energy from the sun.photosynthesisPlants use the suns energy to make food and oxygen.EvaporationSuns heat evaporates water to form clouds and rain.WeatherSuns heat stirs up the atmosphere causing wind and waves.Direct HeatingSome animals use the heat of the sun to activate them.photocellsConvert light to electricity.
What energy source comes up through the ground?
Geothermal energy comes up through the ground. It is heat from the Earth's interior that is used to generate electricity or heat buildings.
