∙ 13y agoWhen light strikes an object, it either passes through the object (with refraction), is absorbed by the object (and the energy is converted to another form such as heat), or it is reflected.
Colors reflect a certain bandwidth of EM radiation, and reflects the rest.
White or silver reflect essentially all light. Black absorbs essentially all light.
Glossy reflects more light directly. Flat colors diffuse the reflected light.
The energy would be trapped when the light is absorbed.
A carbon nannotube forest is considered to be the blackest man-made substance known to man and can absorb (or trap) over 99% of the light.

Which of the following statements describes the energy changes involved in an ecosystem?
The sun's energy is made available to an ecosystem by the plants in that ecosystem.
In an ecosystem what are the point of energy for new energy?
In an ecosystem the point of energy for the new energy is usually at the base. Energy flows from the primary to the secondary and finally to the tertiary sources.
Which component of a stable ecosystem can not be recycled?
energy
Which has greater total amount of energy available the duckweed cattails and other producers of pond ecosystem or the frogs minnow and othe consumers of the ecosystem?
The producers in an ecosystem such as duckweed cattails have the greater total amount of energy. This is because they produce their own energy.
A community and all of the nonliving things that affect it?
An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment. Energy, water, nitrogen and soil minerals are other essential abiotic components of an ecosystem.
When does the producers energy enter the ecosystem?
The producers energy enter the ecosystem by the heat of the sun.
How does energy enter a pond ecosystem?
Light from the sun(:
How does energy first enter a pond ecosystem?
Light from the sun(:
What happens to energy in an ecosystem?
The energy in an ecosystem is used by the organisms in that ecosystem. In the case of the sun as energy, nothing happens because the sun always supplies energy.
What describes the energy changes involved in an ecosystem?
The sun's energy is made available to an ecosystem by the plants in that ecosystem.
How does the energy leaves the ecosystem?
Usually, energy leaves the ecosystem when an organism leaves the ecosystem, they usually leave by death.
Does an ecosystem consist of energy?
yes an ecosystem consist of energy and orther components
Which of the following statements describes the energy changes involved in an ecosystem?
The sun's energy is made available to an ecosystem by the plants in that ecosystem.
How does energy flow through the Chesapeake Bay Ecosystem?
How does energy flow through an ecosystem?
What process changes light energy into chemical energy in an ecosystem?
Photosynthesis is the process that changes light energy into chemical energy in an ecosystem.
What is energy cycle related to ecosystem?
The energy cycle related to ecosystem is the transformation of bio-geochemical energy. This is able to link biotic and abiotic factors and cycle nutrients which forms the ecosystem.
Why does ecosystem constantly need new energy?
An ecosystem doesn't run out of energy because it is continually being replenished by the energy of the sun.
