Ultra-violet radiation from the sun is caused by the high temperature of the sun, which in turn is the result of nuclear fusion. High temperatures cause sub-atomic particles to vibrate rapidly, and vibrating electrons give off electromagnetic radiation. The faster the electrons vibrate, the higher the frequency, and the higher the energy content of the radiation that they radiate.
What else can I help you with?
Which part of the solar radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer?
The ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer. The ozone molecules do not allow only the ultraviolet radiations to pass through.
How much of ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the sun?
None, the sun emits UV.
What are some ultraviolet radiation absorbed in the upper stratosphere?
Green house gase
How many ultraviolet rays are there?
There are three main types of ultraviolet (UV) rays: UVA, UVB, and UVC. UVA and UVB are the ones that reach the Earth's surface, while UVC is mostly absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere.
What is Earths incoming ultraviolet radiation absorbed by?
Nitrogen, Oxygen (UV-C and more energetic), and Ozone (UV-B and more energetic)
What are absorbed by the ozone?
Harmful ultraviolet radiations are absorbed by the ozone layer.
Where is most ultraviolet radiation absorbed?
Most ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere. This layer of ozone helps to protect life on Earth by absorbing and filtering out much of the harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun before it reaches the surface.
Ultraviolet rays are absorbed by the?
UV rays are absorbed by ozone layer. These are fatal rays.
Which part of the solar radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer?
The ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer. The ozone molecules do not allow only the ultraviolet radiations to pass through.
What are ultraviolet rays changed into after their absorbed by the earth?
The UV rays are absorbed by the ozone. They change into nothing.
Most of earths incoming is absorbed by ozone?
Ultraviolet light.
How much of the ultraviolet radition from the sun is absorbed by oxygen and ozone?
Most of it is absorbed. UV is the harmful radiation of the sun.
Does ultraviolet light produce heat?
Ultraviolet light does not directly produce heat. Heat is typically generated when ultraviolet light is absorbed by an object and converted into thermal energy.
Does ultraviolet radiation convert into thermal energy when it is absorbed by human skin?
Yes, when ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by human skin, it can be converted into thermal energy. This process can contribute to skin warming or heating up, as the absorbed energy gets converted into heat.
How much of the ultraviolet radiation from the sun is absorbed by oxygen and ozone?
95-99.9%
How much of ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by the sun?
None, the sun emits UV.
Which type of electromagnetic waves are absorbed by earth and change to heat?
ultraviolet rays
