When earth receives energy from the sun some energy escapes back into what?

When Earth receives energy from the sun, some of the energy is reflected back into space. This reflected energy is mainly in the form of infrared radiation.


Is more energy from the sun absorbed or reflected by Earth's surface?

More energy from the sun is absorbed by Earth's surface than is reflected. This absorbed energy is converted into heat, which warms the Earth's surface and plays a crucial role in driving the planet's climate system.


What percentage of the suns energy that reaches the earth is absorbed by earth surface?

About 50 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. In addition, about 9 percent is reflected.About 22 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is reflected by clouds and the atmosphere.About 19 percent of the Sun's incoming energy is absorbed by clouds and the atmosphere.


What percent of the suns energy is absorbed at earths surface?

Roughly 70% of the sun's energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The rest is reflected back into space or absorbed by the atmosphere.


Is all the energy that earth receives from the sun used in photosynthesis?

No, not all the energy that Earth receives from the sun is used in photosynthesis. Most of the sun's energy that reaches Earth is absorbed by the atmosphere, land, and oceans, where it is involved in various processes such as heating the planet, driving weather patterns, and sustaining life in different ways beyond photosynthesis.

What is the sun's energy reflected into?

The sun's energy is reflected into space by various surfaces like clouds, ice, snow, and Earth's surface. This reflection helps regulate the Earth's temperature by preventing all the sun's energy from being absorbed.


Is energy absorbed or reflected when the sun's rays strike the earth's surface?

Energy is being absorbed AND being reflected when the sun's ray strike the Earth's surface.


When earth receives energy from the sun some energy escapes back into what?

How much of the Sun's radiant energy is reflected by clouds or scattered by the atmosphere?

27%


When the Sun's rays strikes Earth's surface energy is reflected or absorbed?

absorbed


What happens to the sun's energy as it is reflected back from the earth?

When the sun's energy is reflected back from the Earth, it can be absorbed by the atmosphere, clouds, or surface. Some of the energy gets trapped and warms the Earth, contributing to the greenhouse effect. The rest is radiated back towards space.


Is more energy from the sun absorbed or reflected by Earth's surface?

More energy from the sun is absorbed by Earth's surface than is reflected. This absorbed energy is converted into heat, which warms the Earth's surface and plays a crucial role in driving the planet's climate system.


What happen to the energy from the sun when is reflected or absurd by the atmosphere?

They get burned in the Green house gases


Some energy from the Sun is reflected back into what?

Some energy from the Sun is reflected back into space. This reflection occurs when sunlight hits objects like clouds, particles in the atmosphere, and the Earth's surface, causing some of the energy to bounce back rather than be absorbed.


What does energy budget mean?

It's the amount of energy given out by the sun, and the energy received by the earth. Within that is the energy reflected and the energy given off from the earth.


What happens to the energy from the sun that is absorbed. by earths surface?

Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.


What happens to that energy from the sun that is absorbed by earth surface?

Energy from the sun that is absorbed by the Earth's surface is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by land and water and transformed into heat.
