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 does earths atmosphere trap from the sun?
Earth's atmosphere traps heat from the sun in the form of infrared radiation. This process, known as the greenhouse effect, helps to maintain a livable temperature on Earth by trapping some of the sun's energy.
When earths atmosphere traps energy from the sun what does it cause?
When Earth's atmosphere traps energy from the sun, it causes an increase in temperature on the surface of the Earth, known as the greenhouse effect. This can lead to global warming, climate change, and various environmental impacts.
Why does the earths atmosphere help sustain and protect life?
The Earth's atmosphere provides essential elements such as oxygen for respiration, absorbs harmful radiation from the sun, regulates temperature through the greenhouse effect, and shields the planet from harmful space debris. These factors collectively create a habitable environment that sustains and protects life on Earth.
What is it called when heat energy gets trapped in earths atmosphere?
That phenomenon is known as the greenhouse effect, where gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in temperatures on the planet.
Why can elements be produced in the sun but not in the earths atmosphere?
The temperature and pressure in the sun are just a bit higher than anywhere on Earth.
Why can elements be produced in the sun but not in earths atmosphere?
Elements can be produced in the sun through nuclear fusion reactions that occur due to the intense heat and pressure. These conditions are not present in Earth's atmosphere, which is why elements are not produced there. Earth's atmosphere primarily consists of gases and does not contain the necessary conditions for nuclear fusion to occur.
Why can elements be produce in the sun but not in the earths atmosphere?
Many elements only form through high temperatures and pressures... both of which are present int the Sun - but not in the Earth's atmosphere.
Why can elements produced in the sun but not in the earth atmosphere?
The earth's atmosphere is not hot enough for thermonuclear fusion to take place.
HOW DOES SUN ENERGY AFFECT EARTHS ATMOSPHERE?
Heat!!
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere the greenhouse?
The sun.
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere and greenhouse?
The sun.
Is the earth heated by the sun?
it is heated by conduction by the earths atmosphere
Why elements be produced in the sun but not in the earth's atmosphere?
Over time, the fusion reactions can form as the reactions that form nuclei of slightly heavier elements, such as carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. Thank you = )

What is the earths atmosphere's purpose?
to protect us from the sun's harmful rays
