When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as?
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
What unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near Earths surface is called?
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near the Earth's surface is called global warming
What percentage of the suns radiation that reaches the earths atmosphere is absorbed by earths surface?
About 50% of the sun's radiation that reaches Earth's atmosphere is absorbed by the Earth's surface. The remaining energy is either reflected back to space or absorbed by the atmosphere.
What percentage of suns radiation is reflected by the earths surface?
About 30% of the sun's radiation is reflected back into space by the Earth's surface, clouds, and atmosphere. This reflection is known as albedo and helps regulate the Earth's temperature.
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near earths surface is called what?
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near the Earth's surface is called global warming
How is the wind distributed close to earths surface?
Friction
What is the layer of earths atmosphere farthest away from earths surface?
Thermosphere, it is also the atmosphere with the highest temperatures.
Which of does the atmosphere exert pressure on?
the earths surface.
What is the moisture that covers the earths surface?
the atmosphere
What caused intense heat a re-entry of rocket to earths atmosphere?
becasue it encounters friction from the atmosphere
What layer of the atmosphere is heated by the earths surface?
trophosphere
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as?
When Earths surface is heated it radiates some of the energy back into the atmosphere as "Infrared Radiation."
What unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near Earths surface is called?
An unnatural temperature increase in the atmosphere near the Earth's surface is called global warming
Is the earths atmosphere heated by solar energy?
Yes, the Earth's atmosphere is heated by solar energy. Sunlight penetrates the atmosphere and warms the surface of the Earth. This heat is then radiated back into the atmosphere, contributing to its overall temperature.
What happens to objects that enter the earths atmosphere?
the objects which enter the earths atmosphere are being pulled down towards the earths surface due to the earths gravity. And so it leads to falling falling of large objects from the space on the surface of the earth.
What planet temperature is closest to the earths?
Mercury has an average surface temperature (67°) closest to the Earths average surface temperature (14°C). The temperature on Mercury varies a lot though - you could argue that Mars is closer in temperature.
Why does spaceships catch on fire while coming back to earth?
It has a high speed as it begins re-entry, but the earths atmosphere slows it down as it approches the surface. The heat comes about due to the friction of the atmosphere on the shuttle as it slows.
