What else can I help you with?
Where does the earths axis of rotation intersect with the earths surface?
The geographical North and South Pole - not the magnetic poles.
When snow passes through warm air melts and refreezes near the ground it becomes?
This is freezing rain. If the layer of cold air is deep enough, it freezes completely into sleet. But if it is only at the surface, it will fall as rain that freezes on cold surfaces - freezing rain.
What kind of radiation passes through the atmosphere and reaches the earths surface?
Most of the visible light and some of the ultraviolet and infrared radiation from the sun pass through the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface. Other forms of radiation, such as gamma rays and X-rays, are mostly absorbed by the atmosphere and do not reach the surface.
What type o radiation passes most easily through earths atmosphere?
Visible light radiation passes most easily through Earth's atmosphere. This type of radiation includes the colors of the rainbow (RED, ORANGE, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE, INDIGO, VIOLET).
What heats earths atmosphere?
The sun heats the atmosphere. Solar radiation largely passes through the atmosphere and warms the surface of the earth. The earth then radiates heat up into the lower levels of the atmosphere where greenhouse gases warm. The warmed greenhouse gases then continue to radiate heat in all directions warming the atmosphere and again the earth's surface.
Where does the earths axis of rotation intersect with the earths surface?
The geographical North and South Pole - not the magnetic poles.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through Earths?
A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon partly passes through the Earth's umbra. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon fully passes through the Earth's umbra. When the Moon only passes through the penumbra, there is only a subtle darkening of its surface. The umbra and the penumbra are parts of the Earth's shadow.
What eclipse passes through the earths shadows?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the full moon passes through the Earth's shadow.
What is the earths zero of longitude which by convention passes through Greenwich England?
It is the Prime Meridian.
What is the flash of light produced when a meteoroid passes through the earths atmosphere?
meteor ^v^
When snow passes through warm air melts and refreezes near the ground it becomes?
This is freezing rain. If the layer of cold air is deep enough, it freezes completely into sleet. But if it is only at the surface, it will fall as rain that freezes on cold surfaces - freezing rain.
What happens durning a lunar eclipse?
The moon darkens because it passes through Earths shadow.
What is the event called when the moon passes directly between the sun and the earth and casts a shadow on the earths surface?
a total eclipse
What are the points where the Earth's axis passes through the Earth's surface?
They are the poles.
The moon experiences a total lunar eclipse when it passes through the earths shadow?
More specifically, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes through the umbra, the darker part of the shadow.
What remains do the earths orbit go through?
The earth's orbit passes through the orbits of cometary debris which manifest themselves as meteorite showers.
What is the definition of the word axis?
axis - An imaginary line that passes through earths center and its north and south poles.
