What percentage of the suns energy that reaches the earths is absorbed by ozoneclouds and atmosphere gases?

Approximately 20% of the Sun's energy that reaches the Earth is absorbed by the ozone layer and atmospheric gases. Ozone specifically absorbs a significant portion of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, protecting the surface from harmful effects. The remaining energy is either reflected back into space or absorbed by the Earth's surface.


How much of the suns energy is absorbed by air and clouds?

Approximately 20% of the Sun's energy that reaches the Earth is absorbed by the atmosphere, including air and clouds. Clouds contribute significantly to this absorption, as they can trap heat and reflect sunlight. This interaction plays a key role in the Earth's energy balance and climate system. The remaining energy is either reflected back into space or reaches the Earth's surface.


What percent of suns energy that reaches the earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere?

Approximately 30% of the Sun's energy that reaches the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere. This reflection occurs due to various factors, including clouds, atmospheric particles, and Earth's surface characteristics. The remaining energy is absorbed by the Earth, contributing to the planet's climate and weather systems.


What happens to the suns energy when it hits earth on a pie graph?

When the sun's energy hits the Earth, approximately 30% is reflected back into space, 20% is absorbed by the atmosphere, and the remaining 50% reaches the Earth's surface where it is absorbed and used for various processes like heating the planet and powering the water cycle.


How is the energy from the sun reflected by the atmosphere?

The Suns rays reflect of the Earth, then off the outer shell of the atmosphere, temporarily trapping sunlight and heat.

What happens to the energy from the suns rays?

The energy from the sun's rays is absorbed by the Earth's surface, oceans, and atmosphere. This energy is then converted into heat, which drives weather patterns, ocean currents, and the growth of plants through photosynthesis.
