Yes, most definetly. The higher sunspot activety on the sun, the more northern lights. The ions that gives energy to the gas molecules in the atmosphere, which again produce northern lights comes with the sun waves (radiation) from the sun. the next sunspot high OS expected to be in 2013, so this will be a excellent year to see northern lights.
Usually - but not always - electricity powers our lights and appliances.
The first recorded sighting of the northern lights dates back to ancient times. It is believed that indigenous peoples in the Arctic regions, such as the Inuit and Sami, have been witnessing the phenomenon for thousands of years.
Yes. Leaving lights turned on when not in use does contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and therefore to global warming. A good rule of thumb is that household appliances consume electricity and therefore contribute to global warming in proportion to the amount of heat they produce. Incandescent light globes work by heating a wire filament until it glows white hot, so they are obviously very heavy users of electricity. However, there are other things we can do other than just turning off lights all the time. Replacing these by modern high-efficiency, low energy lights uses a fraction of the electricity and therefore contributes only a fraction of the carbon emissions that lead to global warming. With high-efficiency, low energy lights we need be less concerned about leaving lights on for a few minutes, and get on with enjoying life.
Conserving lights helps reduce energy consumption and lower electricity bills. It also helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. Ultimately, conserving lights contributes to a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly lifestyle.
Aurora borealis; the Northern Lights.
In polar regions, ions radiate energy that creates shimmering lights called auroras. These auroras are a natural phenomenon caused by interactions between charged particles from the sun and the Earth's atmosphere. The lights can appear in different colors such as green, red, or purple, depending on the type of particles involved.
Shimmering Lights was created on 2010-09-21.
House lights radiate energy as electromagnetic waves in the wavelength bands of heat and visible light.
The shimmering lights danced on the water's surface.
Energy is not stored in lights (not electric ones at least). Energy is used by lights.
The Southern Lights (Aurora Austrialis) are a sky phenomena, multi-colored shimmering lights, associated with the acceleration of charged particles above the South Magnetic Pole. (see the related question)
Motion sensing lights use a passive system that detects infrared energy. These sensors are known as PIR (passive infrared) detectors or pyroelectric sensors. Human skin averages to be 93 degrees F, which radiates infrared energy in a wavelength that is between 9 and 10 micrometers. The sensors dectect quick movement of objects that radiate between 8 to 12 micrometers of infrared energy.
The aurora borealis, also known as the northern lights, is caused by the interaction between charged particles from the solar wind and the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. These particles collide with gases in the thermosphere, such as oxygen and nitrogen, causing them to emit light in various colors. The resulting displays of shimmering, dynamic lights are most commonly observed in polar regions.
They mean different thing to different people, to me they are little stars shimmering in the dash to others they are warnings from the car
Brake lights draw their energy from the vehicle's battery.
