What happens to a potato chip bag as it warms in the heat of the sun?

If it hasn't been opened, the air particles inside gain kinetic energy, meaning that the bag will expand and eventually pop.
Then the sun's heat is transferred into the particles of the bag, and so the particles move apart, melting the bag. If extreme heat, the bag may face sublimation. (Looking at the particle matter through the particle theory of matter.)

What happens to the sun's heat in the greenhouse effect?
The sun's heat (ultraviolet radiation) warms the surface of the earth.Heat rises (infrared radiation) rises from the warm earth.Much of this heat is captured by greenhouse gases which become warm.This warmth makes the surrounding atmosphere warm.It also warms the surface of the earth even further.
What happens to the density of the air as air on the surface of the earth warms?
The sun heats the surface of the Earth, and some of this heat goes into warming the air near the surface.
When light from the sun warms the ground the transfer of heat energy is called?
Radiation
What happens to heat during an endothermic reaction?
Heat is absorbed.
What type of heat transfer takes place as the sun warms the earth's surface?
Radiation cause there is no material medium between the two point but light and heat comes to the earth by electromagnetic wave which are in packets of energy.
What happens to a potato bag as it warms in the heat of sun?
The moisture from the inside of the chips evaporates causeing the bag to be moist and wet
What happens as the sun's heat warms the earth's surface?
The heat rises in the form of infrared radiation, which is easily captured by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
What happens i a potato placed in a unprinted paper put in oven?
If you place a potato on an piece of unprinted paper in the microwave oven, the potato would heat up, the paper would not.
Heat from burning fuel warms?
Heat that comes from burning fuels warm the air. The heat also warms anything that lies near it in the environment.

What happens when you add heat to air in a balloon?
The air warms and expands, becoming lighter than the surrounding air, thus lifting the balloon.
What warms the atmosphere?
Mostly the sun. The sun's heat warms the earth. This heat, in the form of infra-red energy rises into the atmosphere where it is trapped by greenhouse gases. This greenhouse effect warms the atmosphere.
What heat warms the surface of the earth?
the sun
A fire warms you by transferring what?
Heat energy
How do you get power from a potato?
When we heat the potato, power forms from heating potato.
What happens to the density of the air as air on the surface of the earth warms?
The sun heats the surface of the Earth, and some of this heat goes into warming the air near the surface.
What causes heating of the troposhere?
the heat radiaton warms it.
