Which two layers of the earth are responsible for the solar radition?
The atmosphere is primarily responsible for protecting the Earth from harmful solar radiation by absorbing and scattering a majority of it before reaching the surface. The ozone layer within the stratosphere is especially important in filtering out the most damaging ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun.
Which greenhouse gas is the most powerful absorber of radition emitted by earth?
In terms of total absorbtion, it is water vapor. It absorbs around 75 to 80% of all the heat the atmosphere absorbs in total. Second place is CO2 which takes in around 5% of all warmth.
Why was the cosmic background radition an important discovery?
The cosmic background radiation was an important discovery because it provided strong evidence for the Big Bang theory of the origin of the universe. It is a remnant of the early stages of the universe, and studying it has helped scientists understand the composition and evolution of the cosmos.
Who Proposed the quantum theory of radition?
Max Planck proposed the quantum theory of radiation in 1900, which revolutionized our understanding of the behavior of electromagnetic radiation. Planck introduced the concept of energy quantization, where energy is emitted or absorbed in discrete units called quanta. This groundbreaking theory laid the foundation for quantum mechanics.
What kind of radition helped prove the big bang theory to scientists?
The discovery of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) played a critical role in confirming the Big Bang theory. This radiation provides strong evidence supporting the idea that the universe originated from a highly compact, hot state and has been expanding and cooling ever since.

What layer has gravity on the sun's atmosphere?
inner core radition
Most of the energy that heats earths atmosphere is visible light?
no it's infared radition
Cbse class 9th social science geography chapter 5?
solar radition is the heat and light is called solar radition
The heating of the lower layer of the atmosphere from radition absorbed by certain heat absorbing gases is called?
The heating of the lower layer of the atmosphere from radiation absorbed by certain heat-absorbing gases is called the greenhouse effect. This effect traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
What are the types of radiation pyrometers?
total radition
What is a transverse by electromagnetic wave?
an electromagnetic radition
What is sunlight like on Mercury?
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun (Sol). The Sunlight on Mercury due to having a much thinner atmosphere than Earth is much intense (with higher levels of radition included).
What is beyond the Bermuda triagle?
i think its electromagnetic radition
Why is the atmosphere is heated cheifly by radition from Earth's surface rather than by direct solar radiation?
The atmosphere is heated chiefly by radiation from Earth's surface because the Earth's surface absorbs solar energy and emits it as infrared radiation. This infrared radiation is then trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing the atmosphere to be heated. Direct solar radiation contributes to heating the Earth's surface, which in turn warms the atmosphere through convection and radiation.
Is cooking a hot dog over a campfire radiation or conduction?
radition
What term describes the movement of matter due to the temperature differences in the sun?
radition
