The actual is Clouds, gases and dust reflects 25% of the incoming sun light.
Clouds reflect light back to space. Dust particles and gases reflect light in all directions in a process called scattering. Gas particles scatter shorter wavelengths of visible light (blue and violet), and that is why the sky is blue.

How does the atmosphere reflect energy?
Some sunlight is absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere before it can reach the surfaces.
What energy sources drives the atmosphere and hydrosphere?
Energy from the Sun.
What source of energy drives the atmosphere and hydrosphere?
Energy from the Sun.
How is heat energy transferred by earth atmosphere?
heat energy transferred by earths atmosphere by the sun
What is the Difference between oceans and land absorb the Sun's energy?
Land reflects the Sun's energy slowly, while oceans absorb it more quickly.
Why doesn't all of the energy from the sun that enters the atmosphere reach the Earth?
The atmosphere reflects some of the energy back into space.
What absorbs or reflects energy from the sun in the atmosphere?
Earth ozone layer :D
How the sun shines?
in straight lines towards the earth The sun shines light into the Earth's atmosphere and the atmosphere reflects it back onto the Earth to provide power, energy, heat, and light for us all to live.
How does the atmosphere reflect energy?
Some sunlight is absorbed or reflected by the atmosphere before it can reach the surfaces.
What reflects sun energy?
The ozone layer reflects the sun's radiation. these are harmful UV rays.
Where does the energy in the earth's atmosphere originate?
The energy in the earth's atmosphere primarily originates from the Sun. The Sun heats the earth and the water, heating the atmosphere.
How energy from the sun travels theough earth?
The sun doesn't heat and power things like weather evenly. Since the Earth is a sphere, different parts of the world absorb heat at different rates. The energy from the sun enters and leaves Earth through absorption.
What is the benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun?
The benefit of the atmosphere trapping energy from the sun is to keep Earth warm.
What things absorb energy in the Atmosphere?
there are plenty of things in the atmosphere that absorb energy. most obvious known is ozone that absorbs harmful UV rays from the sun. Also there is dust/dirt particles in the atmosphere that are so small that when a beam of light hits it, it reflects blue light giving the impression of a blue atmosphere.
The is the source of all energy in our atmosphere.?
The source of all energy in our atmosphere is the sun.Some energy is reflected back into space, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, some is absorbed by land and water on Earth's surface (all of the above) When Earth receives energy from the Sun.
What is the source of energy for our atmosphere?
The Sun.
What does the amount of energy in the atmosphere depend on?
the amount of energy absorbed by the sun and the amount of energy that escapes the earths atmosphere.
