What happens to the energy that is obsorbed by earths surface?
The energy absorbed by Earth's surface is used for processes like warming the atmosphere and surface, driving weather patterns, and sustaining life through photosynthesis. Some of this energy is also re-radiated back into the atmosphere as heat.
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.
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 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 happens to solar energy as it enters earths atmosphere?
it gets absorbed by the ground
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 the Suns energy when it reaches the earths surface?
What happens to Solar Energy is that some of it gets absorbed into air, land and water while the rest gets reflected back to space.
What is the point on earths surface where an earthquake energy is received?
epicenter
What absorbed the most energy that is radiated from earths surface?
the greenhouse
What absorbs energy that is radiation from earths surface?
the greenhouse effect!
Why are carbon dioxide water vapor and other greenhouse gases important to life on Earths surface?
They absorb radiant energy emitted by Earths surface
What is the transfer of energy from the sun to earths surface?
Because of the heat and light
What is potential energy dependent upon an objects weight and distance from earths surface?
Gravitational potential energy.
When the suns rays strike the earths surface energy is absorbed or reflected?
absorbed
What is the way the sun's energy is absorbed by the earths surface and warms the earth?
the answer is conduction

Most of the solar energy reaching planet Earth and its atmosphere is absorbed by what?
earths surface
