What level of the atmosphere bounces radio waves back to earth and protects us from radiation from the sun?
The Ionisphere bounces radio waves back to earth and regulates the amount of radiation that gets to the lower atmospheres. It all depends on the Sun's activity. The stratosphere is what actually protects us from the UV rays of the sun. The stratosphere creates the ozone layer to keep the UV rays out.
How Do sunspote relate to the incidence of radio and tv disturebances?
The radiation emitted by sunspots ionizes the upper layers of the Earth's atmosphere. When that happens, radio waves (TV & radio) refract (bend) more in the ionization rather than shoot off into outer space as much. The radio waves by bending back to Earth travel much farther than if they just went straight. In the right conditions, these bent radio waves can bounce up off the Earth's surface and refract again in the ionized layers of the atmosphere, coming back down. In this ways, radio waves can travel long distances. The result is, that these long-distance radio waves come back to Earth where there are other radio and TV stations using the very same frequencies, and the long-distance radio waves interfere with the local programing.
What section of the atmosphere is known for its ability to bounce shortwaves radio signals?
The section of the atmosphere known for its ability to bounce shortwave radio signals is the ionosphere. This region, located approximately 30 miles to 600 miles above the Earth's surface, contains ionized particles that reflect radio waves back to the Earth, allowing for long-distance communication. The ionosphere's reflective properties are particularly effective for shortwave frequencies, making it essential for radio broadcasting and international communication.
What layer of the atmosphere do radio waves heading upward from earth often bounce off?
The Ionosphere reflects longer radio waves back to Earth. It varies in height going up at night giving the waves a long distance bounce.Flat vertical walls. Better refraction will Non-ferous metals. Horizontal plan will distort the image of the wave.\ CIV
What do radio waves bounce off?
Radio waves are reflected by many solid objects, such as wood, stone, and notably metal, allowing the use of microwaves in radar applications.Also importantly in broadcast radio, the ionosphere (an upper layer of the Earth's atmosphere) can bounce signals back down to locations beyond the line-of-sight horizon.

Radio waves heading upward from earth often bounces the?
ionosphere
What bounces radio waves back to the earth and protects us from radiation from the sun?
ozone layer
Neither X rays nor radio waves can penetrate the earth's atmosphere?
False. For some bands of radio waves the atmosphere is transparent. Radio waves can penetrate to the ground. That's why we have radio telescopes on the Earth.
Devise that bounces radio waves off the ground to detect changes in elevation?
A radio altimeter bounces radio waves off the ground to detect elevation.
What layer of the earth's atmosphere where the radio communication are reflected back to the earth?
I believe it is the Ionosphere.
Which of the following forms of light can be observed with telescopes at sea level?
Telescopes at sea level can observe visible light, radio waves, and a small portion of infrared and ultraviolet light that are able to penetrate the Earth's atmosphere. Other forms of light such as X-rays and gamma rays are absorbed by the atmosphere and cannot be observed at sea level.
What happens when radio waves hit the earth?
When radio waves hit the Earth's atmosphere, they can be absorbed, reflected, or refracted. Some radio waves may continue through the atmosphere and reach the Earth's surface, where they can be picked up by antennas and receivers for communication or broadcasting purposes. The Earth's atmosphere allows radio waves to travel long distances without much degradation, making them valuable for long-range communication.
What are the four main jobs of the atmosphere?
The four main jobs of the atmosphere are to regulate temperature by trapping heat, protect life on Earth by absorbing harmful radiation, circulate water through the water cycle, and defend against harmful debris from space.
What layer of the atmosphere send radio waves back to earth?
The troposphere... It acts like a gigantic mirror - reflecting radio waves back to Earth.
Layer of charged particles above earth?
The layer of charged particles in Earth's atmosphere is called the ionosphere. The most famous application of this layer is AM radio, which bounces its waves off of the ionosphere for radio receivers to use.
What region of atmosphere helps radio broadcasters?
The Ionosphere hels AM radio broadcasters by reflecting the signal back to Earth.
