What is it called when there's an opening in the clouds and sunlight is seeping through?
Maybe you are referring to crepuscular rays? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crepuscular_rays
Why do UV rays penetrate rain clouds?
UV rays have shorter wavelengths and higher energy levels compared to visible light and infrared radiation, allowing them to penetrate rain clouds more easily. Rain clouds may scatter and absorb some of the UV radiation, but a significant portion can still pass through due to their high energy levels.
How do the clouds block the sun?
It's simple really. Clouds block the sun just like anything else does: by not allowing the sun's light to pass through. Clouds actually reflect much of the sun's rays back out into space. However, this does not mean that all rays are reflected. This is why we can still see during the day on a cloudy day. Like a piece of white paper or thin curtain, there are still small holes or pores that light waves can travel through. Being that clouds are mainly water particles, light can still pass through, but most of it is refracted or reflected.
How can you still get sunburned on a cloudy day?
Ultraviolet (UV) rays can still penetrate through clouds and cause sunburn. These rays can reach your skin even when it's overcast, so it's important to wear sunscreen and protect your skin even on cloudy days.
When light rays from a distant star pass through a lens they converge at a single point called the?
Focus or the focal point.

What do you call a ray of light through the clouds?
Crepuscular rays
What percentage of UV rays pass through clouds?
Approximately 80 of UV rays can pass through clouds, even on a cloudy day, increasing the risk of sun exposure and potential skin damage.
What is the term that describes a ray of sunlight passing through a gap in cloud?
"crepuscular rays" is the technical term...
How do you write a personification sentence using the word alert?
The alarm called out to alert the people to the fire.
What is the transfer of thermal energy through electromagnetic rays called?
thermal radiation - infa red rays
Why positive rays called canal rays?
Positive rays are called canal rays because they are positively charged particles emitted by the anode and accelerated through a small canal or channel in the cathode of a cathode ray tube. These rays were discovered by Eugen Goldstein and were later studied by J.J. Thomson.
How does sunlight breaking through the clouds demonstrate how light rays travel in?
Sunlight breaking through the clouds shows how light rays travel in straight lines. When sunlight hits gaps in the clouds, it continues in a straight path towards Earth, creating visible beams of light. This phenomenon is a good example of how light travels in straight lines until it encounters an obstacle or medium that may cause it to bend or scatter.
Are clouds at the end of a rainbow?
No they are not because they are rays of light
Why are anode rays called canal rays?
Anode rays are positively charged .so they are bend towards perforated cathode which is negatively charged and pass through them.since they have passed through canals or holes by producing fluorescence. Therefore they are known as canal rays.
