How do industrial development disturb the atmosphere?
Industry uses fuel that it burns to heat water, to then create steam and turn turbines for electricity. Burning this fuel releases harmful chemicals like carbon monoxide and sulphur into the atmosphere. a good example is coal, when burning coal, carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide and other crap is released into the atmosphere. These gases damage the ozone (a protective layer of gases in the atmosphere that protect the earth from the suns ultraviolet rays) layer. so the more industry you have and you develop, the more of these gases are going to be released into the atmosphere.
Why is ecological pyramid shaped like a pyramid?
A graphical model that is shaped like a pyramid to show how the energy flows through a food chain, how the amount of energy is decreasing and becoming less available for organisms as it enters each trophic level, and how much of the energy in the ecosystem is lost to the atmosphere as heat.
Why is your atmosphere so important?
the atmosphere is important because without the atmosphere the oxygen would escape from our atmosphere into space and without the atmosphere we would all dye because there would be nothing to protect us from the suns heat
Heat energy is transferred from the sun to the solar panel by. what?
solar energy
How did the Industrial Revolution impact the environment?
more greenhouse gases were emitted because of factories and steam trains and therefore the concerntration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increased and the natural greenhouse process was accelerated, thereby heating the earth.
How do greenhouse gases affect the earths atmosphere?
They slow the loss of heat
What factor contributed to the formation of earths early atmosphere?
energy from the sun,lightening,earths heat triggered chemical reaction for the early gases of the earth combined
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.
How does the Suns energy affect earths atmosphere?
Heat!!
HOW DOES SUN ENERGY AFFECT EARTHS ATMOSPHERE?
Heat!!
What is the amount of heat energy in the earths atmosphere referred to as?
the altitude
Are greenhouse gases in the atmosphere valued as fuel?
No. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere capture heat, and heat is energy, but we have no way of using this energy for ourselves as fuel. This extra energy in the atmosphere will be expended in more severe weather, like storms and cyclones.
Why does earths atmosphere trap energy from the sun?
The atmosphere traps energy from the sun because in our atmosphere are greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane. These three-atom gases absorb the heat rising from the earth's surface.
What is the process of trapping heat by gases in the earths atmosphere?
The process of trapping heat by gases in the Earth's atmosphere is known as the greenhouse effect. Certain gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, allow sunlight to enter the atmosphere but trap heat, preventing it from escaping back into space. This leads to an overall warming of the Earth's surface temperature.
How is earths air heated?
Well, the sun gives off energy (or heat). When it hits the Earth's atmosphere, it absorbs that heat or energy. the energy is then trapped in the atmosphere. This is called the "green house effect."
Heating the Earths atmosphere is caused by energy consumption or production?
Heating the Earth's atmosphere is primarily caused by energy production and consumption, which releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat and contribute to global warming and climate change. Reducing our reliance on fossil fuels and transitioning to renewable energy sources can help mitigate this impact.
Which part of the greenhouse represents greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
The glass or plastic walls of a greenhouse represent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by trapping heat energy inside, much like how greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat.
