Is earth a source of light?

No, the Earth is not a source of light itself. The Earth's primary source of light is the Sun, which emits light and energy that reaches the Earth and illuminates it. The Earth reflects some of this light, which is why we can see it.


Where do you get heat and light?

Heat and light can be generated from various sources such as the sun, fire, electricity, or chemical reactions. The sun is the primary source of both heat and light for Earth, while artificial sources like light bulbs and heaters use electricity to produce heat and light.


What is the flash of light produced when a meteoroid passes through earth's atmosphere is?

The flash of light produced when a meteoroid passes through Earth's atmosphere is called a meteor or shooting star. This phenomenon occurs due to the friction between the meteoroid and the air, causing it to heat up rapidly and produce a visible trail of light as it burns up.


What are the small fragments that have entered the earth's atmosphere and fallen to the surface?

Those small fragments are known as meteoroids. When they enter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce a bright streak of light, known as a meteor or shooting star. If the meteoroid survives the journey through the atmosphere and lands on Earth, it is called a meteorite.


What causes the earth to have periods of light and darkness?

The rotation. When the earth rotates, sides of it don't see the sun. Which are like sunsets and sunrises. The earth is rotating which takes away light and gives light.

Does the Earth produce its own light?

The earth does not produce its own light but it reflects the light rays from the sun that reaches its surface.


Why not earth radiate light?

Earth does radiate light in the form of thermal radiation, which is emitted as heat energy. This radiation is typically in the infrared range and is a result of the Earth's surface absorbing sunlight and then re-emitting it as heat.


Does the earth makes its own light?

No, all planetary bodies only reflect light. Light is only generated by stars. This does not count artificial light or volanic light.


Is the earth luminous or non-luminous?

The Earth is non-luminous, meaning it does not produce its own light. The light we see on Earth comes from sources such as the Sun, the Moon, and artificial lighting.


What are the small particles that produce a streak of light upon entering Earth atmosphere?

"meteors"


Do asteroids produce their own light?

No, asteroids do not produce their own light. Instead, they reflect light from the Sun, which is why they can be observed from Earth. Their surfaces are typically rocky and metallic, allowing them to reflect sunlight effectively, but they do not generate light like stars do.


What is the sun most responsible in producing?

Heat!!!!!! While the sun does produce a lot of heat, none of it reaches Earth. What reaches Earth is electromagnetic energy (light). Some of this light is converted to heat here on Earth, such as some of the light that hits your skin.


What are the small particles that produce a streak of light upon entering earth's atmosphere called?

"meteors"


Does a light bulb produce light?

they produce protons and electrons they are collition then the light produce and heat produce


What provides light and heat?

Nearly anything that produces light will also produce heat.


What kind of wave does the sun produce?

the sun produce ultraviolet rays which strike the earth surface.


How do you see the moon and planets even though they don't produce light?

They reflect sunlight towards Earth.
