What effect would the Sun's radiation have on a snow-covered driveway?
The Sun's radiation would cause the snow on the driveway to melt. The sunlight warms the snow, causing it to melt and turn into water. Over time, this will lead to the snow on the driveway disappearing.
What causes snow to melt in spring?
Snow melts in spring due to warmer temperatures and increased sunlight. The heat from the sun warms the snow, causing it to melt into water. This process is also influenced by factors like air temperature and humidity.
What gets into the cavities and warms and moistens the air?
The nasal cavity warms and moistens air as it enters the body.
What heat warms the surface of the earth?
the sun
How is california's water supply refreshed by the water cycle?
California's water supply is refreshed by precipitation, which falls as rain or snow in the winter months. This water enters rivers and reservoirs, contributing to the state's water supply. Additionally, snow that accumulates in the Sierra Nevada mountains during winter months slowly melts in the spring and summer, providing additional water to reservoirs and groundwater.
Where do icicles go as the weather warms up?
Icicles melt away like snow.
Why is Kilimanjaro is capped with snow?
Mt. Kilimanjaro is very high. At high altitudes, it gets colder. That is because sunlight warms the ground which warms the air, so air that is very far from the ground tends to be cold. At when it is cold enough, you get snow.
When the snow melts what does it become?
When snow melts, it becomes water. The process of snow melting is called ablation, where snow transitions from its solid state to liquid form as it warms up and the temperature rises above freezing.
Why does snow melt in a cooking pan?
Snow does not melt if placed in a cooking pan if that cooking pan is placed in the snow outside.There is nothing inherent about a cooking pan that will cause snow to melt, snow melts when it warms up - there has to be an application of heat. Heat causes snow to melt.

What is the snow leopards enlarged nasal cavity for?
The nasal captivity is used to warm the air in their lungs. So when a snow leopard breathes in the cold breeze of its habitat, their nasal immediately warms the air into their lungs. If a Snow Leopard didn't have this adjustment then they would probably die from the coldness of the mountain chill.
When snow forms in clouds the surrounding air warms?
When snow forms in clouds, it means that the air is cold enough for the water vapor to freeze into ice crystals. This process releases a small amount of heat, but overall, the air temperature around the snow-forming cloud remains cold.
Does snow get heaver when it warms up?
Yes, because some of it melts and percolates into the snowpack. This doesn't change the overall amount of water in the snowpack because it then decreases in size.
Where do eastern songbirds nest for protection from snow?
Songbirds normally do not nest until the threat of snow is over, but the hen bird will sit on the nest until the weather warms. Birds are creatures of habit, and always nest in the same way, regardless of weather.
What happens to the suns energy when it hits clouds ice and snow?
When the sun's energy hits clouds, ice, and snow, some of it is reflected back into space, some is absorbed and warms the surface, and some is scattered in different directions. The white surfaces of ice and snow reflect more sunlight, helping to cool the Earth.
How far does the snow leopard smell and see?
Snow Leopards can see 6x better than humans, their smelling is nothing special, but their nasal cavity is very large, which warms up the air they breathe before it enters the lungs, which is critical in the high altitude of the Himalayas.
