When earth cools most of the energy transferred from earth's surface to space is transferred by the process of what?
When Earth cools, most of the energy is transferred from Earth's surface to space through radiation. This process involves the emission of infrared radiation from the Earth's surface that travels through the atmosphere and into space.
What is an opening in the earth's surface through which steam ashes and lava are forced out?
An opening in the earth's surface through which steam, ashes, and lava are forced out is called a volcano. Volcanoes are formed when magma rises to the surface through vents or openings in the earth's crust, leading to eruptions that release gases, ash, and molten rock.
What is a meteoroid that reaches earth surface?
When a meteor reaches the Earth's surface, it is classified as a meteorite.
Do Secondary waves travel through the earths surface?
No, secondary waves (S-waves) cannot travel through the Earth's surface. They are a type of seismic wave that move through the Earth's interior and cannot propagate in liquids or gases, making them unable to travel through the surface.
How far beneath the earth's surface would you have to go before you were no longer passing through rocks?
You would have to go about 20-30 kilometers beneath the Earth's surface before you were no longer passing through solid rocks. At this depth, you would enter the mantle, which consists of solid but flowing rock.
What does energy travel through before hitting the earth's surface?
dookie and halitosis
Where do diamonds stay before hitting the surface?
Diamonds erupt to the earth's surface through volcanic pipes from deep within the earth's mantle where they are formed under great heat and pressure.
What must happen first before magma rise to the surface?
Before magma can rise to the surface, it must first be generated through melting of the Earth's mantle or crust. This melting can be caused by an increase in temperature, a decrease in pressure, or the addition of volatiles. Once magma is generated, it can rise towards the surface through fractures and conduits in the Earth's crust.
What is the surface of a meteoroid like?
The surface of a meteorid is almost like that of a meteor. It has a very rocky surface before it passes through Earth's atmosphere. However, once it enters the atmosphere, it becomes super heated and breaks up into pieces before hitting the earth most times.
What do you call molten rock before it erupted?
Molten rock before it erupts is called magma. It is found beneath the Earth's surface and can eventually make its way to the surface through volcanic eruptions.
Does a surface wave go through the body of the earth or along the surface?
Surface waves (as the name suggests) travel along Earth's surface. Seismic waves that travel through earth's interior are known instead as body waves.
What kind of waves can travel through earth and along earths surface?
Seismic waves are the types of waves that can travel through the Earth and along its surface. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves (such as primary and secondary waves) that travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves (such as Love and Rayleigh waves) that travel along the Earth's surface.
Can light travel through space?
Light can travel through space. All the light that we get on the earth's surface; usually travels from the sun through space before it can reach here.
What is the distance through the earth's center from surface to surface?
7,000 km
The opening in Earth's crust through which magma rises to the surface is known as the?
The opening in the earth crust which magma rise to the surface are Volcanoes
What are the points where the Earth's axis passes through the Earth's surface?
They are the poles.
What percent radiation is lost after reaching earth's surface?
about 5% of radiation is lost before reaching Earth's surface
