What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.
I don't recognise your terms 'solar wave' and 'height'. Solar energy is emitted from the sun and reaches earth as radiation in the visible, ultraviolet, and infrared bands. the totoal falling on 1 square meter of earths surface (on average) is 230 watts.
Roughly 70% of the solar energy that reaches the outer atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The remaining percentage is reflected back into space by clouds, aerosols, and the Earth's surface.
Most solar energy that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the surface of the Earth, such as the land, oceans, and vegetation. This absorption heats up the Earth's surface and is then radiated back into the atmosphere as heat energy.

The solar radiation that reaches the earths surface from the sun is called INSOLATION
What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.
The primary factor that affects the amount of solar energy reaching any point on Earth's surface is the angle at which the sunlight hits the surface. This angle, known as the solar zenith angle, determines the path length through the atmosphere that the solar radiation must travel, affecting the amount of absorption and scattering that occurs. The higher the angle, the more direct the sunlight, and the more energy that reaches the surface.

Because of the heat and light
It find its way to earth
Roughly 70% of the solar energy that reaches the outer atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The remaining percentage is reflected back into space by clouds, aerosols, and the Earth's surface.

earths surface
The Earth looks bright - thus much of the light reaching Earth is reflected back into space.
Since energy is not able to be created or destroyed, it must be used in some way. Photosynthesis is one way that solar energy is used when it hits the Earth. Some solar energy is used to heat the air, and it is also used in solar panel technology which can power a variety of objects.
