well there is n real name forthe layer outside the sun. you culd say i is lik the ozon layer protecting o eart from the suns rays, bu th difrence is they are completely opposite of on anotherso the ozne layerprtects the earth and keeps in the air a c02. but the suns layer outputs the bad stuff like radiation and such but the ozone protects us from that radiation and the space outside the earth

Layer that surrounds the radiation zone of the sun?

The layer that surrounds the radiation zone of the sun is the convection zone. In this zone, energy is transferred by the movement of hot plasma rising and cooler plasma sinking, creating a convection current. This process allows energy to be transported from the core to the surface of the sun.


Which layer of the sun moves heat energy to the convective layer?

The radiative zone of the sun moves heat energy through radiation from the core to the convective zone. This zone transports heat through electromagnetic radiation as photons bounce around, transferring energy outward.


What layer of the sun moves heat from the radiative layer to the photosphere?

You're doing the Solar Scramble page with the crossword? If so, I can't tell you a right answer. But just in case you can figure it out yourself, there is a major loss of energy when it "radiates" from the core to the radiation zone. I think the energy would be reduced by 70% according to a website I found.


Layer of liquid iron and nickel that surrounds earths inner core?

The layer you are referring to is the outer core of the Earth. It is composed mainly of liquid iron and nickel due to intense heat and pressure. The movement of this liquid outer core is responsible for generating the Earth's magnetic field.


How big is the sun's radiation zone?

The radiation zone is the "middle part" of the interior of the Sun. It is adjacent to the core. In this zone, energy travels between the atoms as photons of gamma radiation. Above the radiative zone is the convective zone. Scientists estimate that core energy takes as long as 170,000 years to travel through the dense matter of the radiative zone.According to NASA, the Sun's radiative zone begins about 108,125 miles from the center of the Sun and ends about 302,750 miles from the center of the sun. So the radiative zone makes up 32 percent of the Sun's volume and 48 percent of its mass.The exterior of the Sun, where radiation again occurs, is called the photosphere. In some larger stars, the outer layer is radiative and is substantially thicker.

What layer is the sun?

In what layer of the sun is energy produced?

The layer of the sun's interior where energy is transfered mainly by electromagnetic radiation is the radiation zone. The light and heat produced by the sun's core first pass through the middle layer of the sun's interior, the radiation zone. The radiation zone is a region of very tightly packed gas where energy is transferred mainly in the form of electromagnetic radiation

What is the layer of the sun thorugh which energy is transferred away from the core buy radiation?

The layer of the Sun through which energy is transferred away from the core by radiation is called the radiative zone. In this zone, energy from the core travels outward as photons, which are absorbed and re-emitted multiple times by the particles in the dense solar plasma before reaching the convective zone.
