What source of energy powers the phenomena that occur between Earth's weather and climate?
sun is the primary energy source that drives all weather events
What is the difference between solar energy and wind energy?
The difference between solar energy and wind energy is that solar energy comes from the sun and is in the form of waves. However they are both renewable energy resources.
What are the forms of solar energy?
The two primary forms of solar energy are Solar Heat (also called CSP, or Concentrating Solar Power) and Solar Photovoltaic.
What is the definition for intensity of insolation?
Intensity of insolation refers to the intensity of the sun's rays on the earth's surface. It is a measure of solar energy that is received by a given surface area at a given time.
How does solar energy affect weather?
Solar energy affects earth's weather in a couple of different ways. Solar energy warms the planet and creates the wind.
What is the name given to energy from the sun?
Solar Energy
What do you call energy given off by the sun?
solar energy ?
What two names are given the sun's energy?
Solar Energy & Nuclear Fussion.
Light and heat given off by the sun?
Solar Energy!
What controls how much solar energy is received at a given location?
How much given solar energy is received in a given location is that you have enough sunlight to create solar energy because solar means light waves from the sun. So if there is a lot of sunlight in your community/area you will get a lot/or a medium amount of solar energy, but if you don't have a lot of sunlight in your community/area then you won't get a lot of solar energy. Angle of deflection and shade trees, as well as cloud cover have a direct effect on the amount of convertible lightwaves available for conversion to electricity.
Name of the energy source that light and heat given off by the sun?
Solar Energy
How is energy converted to solar energy?
I've given a couple links below to articles that can answer your question.
What is the term given to heat and light radiated from the sun?
Solar Energy
What energy is given off by the sun?
The sun gives solar energy which is made from the particles of heat that collide..
How is solar energy captured?
Solar energy is captured and converted to normal energy through solar panels.You see the solar panle collects the energy from the sun some solar panels turn the heat into energy but others collect it from the light. The energy goes in an energy box and when energy is needed the energy that the solar panel collected gets used.It only transforms, it is not yet possible to make energy.I've given a couple links below to articles that can answer your question.
What is the term given to the sun's energy that reaches the earth?
Insolation, or solar radiation.
