What else can I help you with?
Do the earth and moon make their own light and heat?
No. The moon reflects the sun's light and the earth is heated and lite by the sun.
What explains why the sun the only star from which earth receives much heat and light?
The sun is the only star that is close enough to Earth to provide significant heat and light because of its proximity. Other stars are much farther away, and their light does not reach us with the same intensity. Additionally, the unique composition and size of the sun make it a suitable source of heat and light for Earth.
What is the layer from the sun the earth receives the most energy from?
The layer in which the Earth receives the most energy is the photosphere
Why is the light of the moon not as hot as the sun's light?
The moon does not radiate any heat or light of its own, it merely reflects the sun's heat and light. But since the moon is many times smaller than the sun, it only receives a small fraction of the heat and light -- and much less when it is in the shadow of the earth. However, most of the heat and light striking the moon is absorbed by the moon itself, or is reflected into space, thus there's very little reflected back to earth.
Why not earth radiate light?
Earth does radiate light in the form of thermal radiation, which is emitted as heat energy. This radiation is typically in the infrared range and is a result of the Earth's surface absorbing sunlight and then re-emitting it as heat.

What planet gives off his own heat and light?
The planet that gives off its own heat and light is Earth. It receives light from the Sun and reflects some of it back into space. Earth also generates heat internally from radioactive decay and geothermal processes.
What is the layer from the sun the earth receives the most energy from?
The layer in which the Earth receives the most energy is the photosphere
What explains why the trade winds blow towards the Equator?
The Equator receives the most heat energy
Earth receive heat from sun is called.?
The process that Earth receives heat from the sun is called radiation.
What is the energy that earths receives from the sun?
light and heat
Where does the earth get heat and light?
Earth gets heat and light from the Sun. It's heat also comes from the Earth's core.
What is an example of transferring heat through radiation?
The earth receives heat from the sun as radiation
Which method of heat transfer does earth receive energy?
The Earth mainly receives energy Radiated by the Sun.
