In short, solar radiation generates heat which affect pressure differentials.

Wind is another name for pressure differentials as the pressures attempt to balance one another in equilibrium. Solar radiation comes mostly in the form of heat, both direct and surface radiation. The higher the temperature, the higher the pressure since heat is a measure of the energy the particles are producing. PV = nRT so as pressure temperature increases, pressure increases.

How does does solar radiation and infrared radiation interact with earth?

Solar radiation from the sun interacts with the Earth's atmosphere, warming the surface. Some of this energy is radiated back into space as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trap some of this infrared radiation, causing a warming effect known as the greenhouse effect.


Is solar radiation absorbed at earth's surface and is reemitted as infrared radiation?

Yes, solar radiation is absorbed by the Earth's surface and is then reemitted as infrared radiation. This process is also known as the greenhouse effect, where certain gases in the atmosphere trap some of this infrared radiation, leading to warming of the planet.


Can a UV light charge solar panels?

Yes, a UV light can charge solar panels because it contains ultraviolet radiation that can be converted into electricity by the solar panels through the photovoltaic effect.


Should wind energy be considered a form of solar energy?

no because solar is not few wind is for different things that are solar energy ^ is that english? technically i guess... the suns heat changes the air temperature [pressure], the hot and cold molecules displace one another [push against each other] and create 'wind'


What energy resources inderectly affects both wind and water energy?

Solar energy indirectly affects both wind and water energy. Solar energy drives the Earth's climate by creating temperature differences that generate winds and influence water cycles. Wind power is a result of the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun, and water energy can be influenced by solar radiation that drives the water cycle.

Where does wind resource came from?

Ultimately, the energy from wind energy comes from solar radiation.


An effect of solar storms that can be viewed with the naked eye?

The northern lights have been seen by human beings for thousands of years. They are caused when solar storms eject large bursts of solar wind into the Earth's magnetic field. Radiation, including ultraviolet radiation, is also produced by solar storms. But ultraviolet radiation cannot be seen by the naked eye. Thunder and lightning are not caused by solar storms.

What effect do sunspots have on planets?

Sunspots can affect planets indirectly by influencing solar radiation levels and the solar wind, which can impact planetary atmospheres and magnetic fields. However, sunspots themselves do not have a direct effect on planets in terms of physical or gravitational interactions.

Why might the solar wind have a stronger effect on inner planets than on outer planets in the solar system?

The solar wind has a stronger effect on inner planets because they are closer to the Sun and therefore experience higher solar wind densities and stronger solar wind speeds. Outer planets are farther away from the Sun and have weaker solar wind interactions due to the decreased solar wind density and speed at their distance from the Sun.


Do solar panels produce radiation which then harms humans?

A solar panel collects energy from sunlight, just like windmills convert wind energy. The mechanics inside the solar panel and inside the building let humans use solar energy. There is no more harm to humans from solar energy than there is from using energy produced from the wind.
