What else can I help you with?
Could gamma rays be blocked by the Earth's atmosphere?
Yes. Our atmosphere blocks cosmic and solar gamma rays.
How does the moon get different shapes?
the sun rays always reaching to the moon. when the earth block the sun rays from reaching the moon, the lunar eclipse can be formed. But the moon revolves round the earth, the blocks are removing from the moon. so the moon got different shapes.
Which atmosphere layer blocks radiaton from the sun?
The ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, and it blocks radiation. Specifically it blocks ultraviolet radiation, which is damaging to life. It only blocks about 98%, so it is still important to be wary of this type of radiation at the surface.
Why does the new moon appear dark?
The Earth blocks out the rays of the Sun, so the moon can't reflect the light anymore.
What blocks the sun?
Clouds, buildings, sun block (cream or lotion applied to the skin). A solar eclipse, the moon blocks the suns rays from striking the Earth. Lunar eclipse, the Earth blocks the suns rays from striking the moon.
Which layer of the atmosphere blocks gamma rays?
The ozone layer in the stratosphere blocks gamma rays from reaching the Earth's surface.
How does moon gets different shapes?
the sun rays always reaching to the moon. when the earth block the sun rays from reaching the moon, the lunar eclipse can be formed. But the moon revolves round the earth, the blocks are removing from the moon. so the moon got different shapes.
Does water vapor stop gamma rays from reaching earth?
no
Why can the sun's rays not pass through the earth?
The Earth's atmosphere blocks most of the sun's harmful radiation, like ultraviolet rays, from reaching the surface. This protective barrier absorbs and scatters sunlight, preventing direct penetration through the planet.
What doe the Earth's protective atmosphere block out?
Earth's protective layer blocks out the harmful ultraviolet rays. The ozone layer blocks it out.
Which blocks are harmful ultraviolet rays from the Sun?
The ozone layer blocks most of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. The ozone layer has thinned over time in certain areas due to emissions of ozone depleting chemicals widely used in industry.
Could gamma rays be blocked by the Earth's atmosphere?
Yes. Our atmosphere blocks cosmic and solar gamma rays.
What does the ozone do and how it protects?
Ozone in the Earth's atmosphere absorbs and blocks harmful ultraviolet radiation from the Sun, preventing it from reaching the Earth's surface. This helps protect living organisms from the harmful effects of UV radiation, such as skin cancer and cataracts.
Does solar eclipse occur when earth falls between the sun and the moon?
No. This planetary alignment causes a lunar eclipse because, the earth blocks the sun's rays from reaching the moon, so that the moon is inside the earth's shadow. S<<<E===m in the diagram above s represents the sun E represtents the Earth and m represents the moon. The< represents the sun's rays and the = represents the Earth's shadow.
How Is Ozone Layer Responsible For Life On Earth?
The ozone layer blocks the UV rays coming from sun. These UV rays are fatal rays of the sun.
What prevents most of the suns gamma rays from reaching us?
The Atmosphere
What blank inside the stratosphere blocks ultraviolent radiation?
The ozone layer, composed of ozone molecules (O3), absorbs and filters out most of the harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun in the stratosphere. This layer acts as a protective barrier for life on Earth by preventing excessive UV radiation from reaching the surface.
