What is the layer of charged particles above the earths suface?

The layer of charged particles above the Earth's surface is called the ionosphere. It plays a crucial role in the reflection and propagation of radio waves, as well as in the creation of the auroras.


Layer of charged particles above earth?

The layer of charged particles in Earth's atmosphere is called the ionosphere. The most famous application of this layer is AM radio, which bounces its waves off of the ionosphere for radio receivers to use.


What is a layer of changed particles above earth?

The Ionosphere is one layer of charged particles above the Earth, and is important for High Frequency radio communication. There are several layers in the ionosphere, and since they weren't certain that the first one identified was not guaranteed to be the lowest, it was given the name of 'the e-layer'. Above it are some f-layers, and below it a d-layer. Some of these are at least in part controlled by the UV from the Sun.


What layer of the atmosphere contains the ionosphere?

The ionosphere is found within the thermosphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere. It extends from about 80 km to 550 km above the Earth's surface and contains charged particles that can reflect radio waves.


What layer has charged particles?

The Answer is...... IONOSPHERE


Electrically charged particles are found primarily in what atmosphere?

Electrically charged particles, also known as ions, are primarily found in the ionosphere layer of Earth's atmosphere. This region is located between 48 km and 965 km above the Earth's surface and is where solar radiation interacts with the gases in the atmosphere to create ions.


What layer has electrically charged particles?

The Answer is...... IONOSPHERE


What layer holds the fewest gas molecules and air particles?

The exosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere and holds the fewest gas molecules and air particles. This layer extends from about 500 km above the Earth's surface to the edge of space.


What layer of the atmosphere acts like a magnet and what does it attract?

The ionosphere, a layer in the Earth's atmosphere, acts like a magnet by attracting charged particles such as electrons and ions. These charged particles are mainly attracted by the Earth's magnetic field, causing them to be trapped and move along the magnetic field lines in the ionosphere.


What atmosphere layer contains electrical charged particles that reflects radio waves?

What causes the lights?

The Sun's magnetic field produces charged particles and these charged particles are usually radiated out into space. Sometimes these charged particles may be caught in Earth's magnetic field and as they enter the upper atmosphere of Earth, they are in contact with other gases in the upper atmosphere and emit light and colors. The solar wind reacts to the Earth's magnetic field and then spreads across the ionosphere (the upper, charged layer of our atmosphere).
