What happens to the total energy in a seismic wave as the wave grows increasingly larger?
The seismic wave's energy gets smaller
What is produced by sunlight?
Energy
What is the major energy resource for earth?
Sunlight energy
What happens to sunlight when it strikes a dark black material?
Most of it is converted into heat energy, that is ... it ceases to exist.
At any one time half of the earth has sunlight?
At any one time half of the earth has sunlight and the other half does not. The half that has sunlight experiences day while the other half with no sunlight experiences night. Day and night happens because of earth's rotation.
If energy can be neither created nor destroyed what happens to the sunlight that falls on earth?
Sunlight is radiation energy that transfers into heat energy
How does the light from the sun warm the earth?
The sunlight is partially absorbed by materials on Earth; when that happens, the energy in the sunlight is converted into heat energy.
What happens to light energy if it is not absorbed by producers?
The sunlight then heats the Earth.
What happens to temperature as the angle at which the sun's rays strike the earths surface increases?
Each beam of sunlight has the same amount of energy (which is where we get our warmth). The energy of the sun is more spread accross the Earth's surface with increased angles (oblique). This is what happens at the poles where the sun light hits the Earth at 180 degrees. It is cold at the poles because the sun's energy is spread out over a large area. As the angle of the sun decreases the energy of the sun hits the earth directly and is concentrate. This is what happens when the sun hits the equator at 90 degrees and that is why it is warm at the equator.
What happens to green plants if they dont have sunlight?
The chloroplasts would produce more energy.
Does sunlight contain energy?
Sunlight is energy.

What is energy from sunlight called?
Energy from sunlight is called solar energy

After sunlight hits photosystem 2 which is the best description of what happens?
solar energy changes adp into atp.
