Why is sun give off tremendous amount of energy?
The sun gives tremendous energy because when two hydrogen atoms meet them energy is formed and one helium atom is form
The sun gives off a large amount of energy in the form of what kind of radiation?
Electromagnetic radiation
Do stars lose mass while they give off energy?
Yes! The energy they give off have an equivalent mass, and this mass is lost to the star. This follows from (a) the equivalence between mass and energy, and (b) conservation of mass. As an example, our Sun, which gives off tremendous amounts of light, loses 4 million tonnes a second, just through the light that leaves the Sun - that is, apart from any solar wind.
What kind of energy the sun gives off?
solar energy
How energy from the sun reaches the sun?
the sun gives off energy
Why is sun give off tremendous amount of energy?
The sun gives tremendous energy because when two hydrogen atoms meet them energy is formed and one helium atom is form
What gives out the microwave?
Microwaves use radiant energy, so they give off radiant energy.
What are some advantages and disadvantages of radiant?
Advantages- Radiant energy gives off heat. Radiant energy makes it visible to see in the dark at night. I cant find any did
Is the thermal energy an example of the solar energy?
the solar energy is the energy of sun and sun gives light and heat but the thermal energy is only a heat energy but radiant energy is light and heat energy so the answer will be no and the correct answer will be radiant energy
How much energy the sun gives off in a day?
Radiant light(1367 W/sq.m) Radiant heat (3,850,000 EJ)
Advantages and disadvantages of radiant energy?
Good things about radiant energy is that it gives off heat, and also can be used as a light source. It isn't however useful in producing large amounts of energy.
How radiant energy helps plants grow?
the sun helps the plants grow because the sun gives them energy
What gives off radiant energy on earth?
candle flames, lightbulbs, gas lamps......
Is sun is the major source of radiant energy why?
Because it gives of soo much heat x
Do shiny materials reflect or absorb radiant energy?
The shiny materials are said to reflect most radiant energy. That's what gives them the quality of being shiny. Generally speaking, shiny materials are reflecting most of the light striking them, and this translates into the fact that shiny materials generally do not absorb radiant energy.
What are the disadvantages of conduction convectionradiation?
the big disadvantage it caused climate change the heat almost lost not get any time
Which is not an example of heat transfer by convection?
the sun. you might think the sun gives convection, but it gives off radiation, which is the radiant energy, the energy it gives off, just coming down, not needing an object to warm up.
