How does the heat Jupiter radiates compare to the energy it receives from the Sun?

Jupiter radiates about 1.6 times more energy than it receives from the Sun. This excess heat is leftover from Jupiter's formation and helps to sustain its atmosphere and powerful weather systems.


Does tar absorb heat?

Yes, tar can absorb heat because it is a dark material that is able to absorb and store heat from the sun. This property makes tar commonly used in road construction as it can help in warming up roads and melting snow and ice.


Does charcoal absorbs heat at day?

Yes, charcoal can absorb heat during the day. Charcoal is a good conductor of heat and can absorb and retain heat energy when exposed to sunlight. This can make charcoal warm to the touch when it has been absorbing heat from the sun.


Why does Jupiter emit so much energy?

Jupiter emits more energy than it receives from the Sun due to its internal heat leftover from its formation. This heat is generated by gravitational forces compressing its core, which causes Jupiter to radiate excess energy. as a result, Jupiter emits more energy than it absorbs from the Sun.


What are the atmospheric conditions of Jupiter?

The composition of Jupiter's atmosphere is quite different from Earth's--Jupiter is composed mostly of hydrogen and helium, the same elements that make up most stars. In fact, we expect that Jupiter has basically the same composition as the Sun. Like the Sun, Jupiter has its own heat source, but Jupiter's heat comes from heat left over from the formation of the planet 4.5 billion years ago, and heat produced today due to the slight contraction of the planet under its own gravity. This means that Jupiter's composition might be very much like the original solar nebula from which it--and the solar system--formed, so investigating Jupiter's atmosphere is a way for us to investigate the early solar system.

How far do you have to go to get no heat from the sun?

i don't know but i think beyond Jupiter's orbit is when you get no heat.


Why is the temperature on the surface of Jupiter much lower than that on earth?

The "Surface" of Jupiter is hard to define as it is a gas giant but the top of the atmosphere (however you want ti define that) is cold due to heat radiating into space. Jupiter is so much farther from the Sun than Earth is, the Sun cannot heat Jupiter's atmosphere. And the heat form the interior (it is actually hotter than the surface of the Sun deep inside Jupiter!) dissipates into space.

Which planet gives off twice as much heat as it gets from the sun?

Jupiter gives off more heat than it receives from the sun, with its internal heat source generating about twice as much energy as it receives from the sun. This excess heat contributes to Jupiter's high internal temperature and its strong magnetic field.


How does sand soil rock absorb heat?

Sand, soil, and rocks absorb heat from the sun due to their color and composition. Their surfaces are generally dark and have a high heat capacity, allowing them to absorb and retain heat. This absorption process is what causes these materials to become warm when exposed to sunlight.
