Heat from the sun is transferred to Earth through electromagnetic radiation, mainly in the form of visible light and infrared radiation. This radiation travels through the vacuum of space until it reaches Earth's atmosphere, where some of it is absorbed and warms the surface of the planet. The heat is then further distributed through conduction, convection, and latent heat processes within Earth's atmosphere and surface.
What else can I help you with?
You leave a hammer in the sun for several hours when you pick it up heat is transfered to your hand?
The hammer absorbs heat from the sun, raising its temperature. When you pick it up, heat is transferred from the hotter hammer to your hand, which is at a lower temperature, causing your hand to feel warmer due to the heat transfer.
What is heat transfered by electromagnetic waves through space?
Heat transfer by electromagnetic waves through space is called radiation. Radiation does not require a medium to travel through, unlike conduction or convection. The Sun's energy reaching the Earth is an example of heat transfer through radiation.
How is energy transfered from sun to runningwhat are the processes?
Energy from the sun is transferred to Earth through radiation, specifically in the form of sunlight. This energy is then absorbed by plants through the process of photosynthesis, where it is converted into chemical energy. When animals consume these plants, they obtain the energy stored in their tissues, which is then used in various metabolic processes to support life and running activities.
How is heat energy transfered within the liguid water in the pond?
Heat energy is transferred within liquid water in a pond primarily through convection. As water near the surface is heated by the sun, it becomes less dense and rises, while cooler water from below sinks to take its place. This creates a circulating current that transfers heat throughout the water.
Is the sun a good heat insulator?
No, the sun is not a heat insulator. In fact, the sun is a major source of heat and radiation for the Earth. It emits heat and light energy that warms our planet.
Heat energy from the sun is transfered to earth by?
Radiation
What is the primary mechanism in which heat enters from the sun and transfered to earth?
evaporation enters
What is the name for the point of the orbit when the eatrh is closest to the sun?
perihelion
What is heat trainsfer?
Heat transfer is when heat is transfered from one object to another,for example,the sun gives the Earth warmth and energy
Is the sun the best conductor of heat?
The sun is not really a conductor of heat, it is agenerator of heat (via a very large and sustained thermonuclear reaction). A conductor of heat is normally a material that allows heat to be transfered through its body; examples of good heat conductors are aluminium and copper
What is the distance between the sun and the eatrh?
149.6 million kilometres, plus or minus 2.5 million kilometres.
Which planet fron the sun the earth is?
we are the third planet from the sun.
What is Neptunes distance fron the sun?
neptune is 4,496,000,000kilometers away from the sun.
You leave a hammer in the sun for several hours when you pick it up heat is transfered to your hand?
The hammer absorbs heat from the sun, raising its temperature. When you pick it up, heat is transferred from the hotter hammer to your hand, which is at a lower temperature, causing your hand to feel warmer due to the heat transfer.
How energy from the sun transfered?
Primarily in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
How does melanin protect the skin fron the sun?
I believe the melanin cells take in the sun rays and dissipate it as harmless heat throughout the skin, resulting in a darker pigmentation occurring or a "tanning effect", but that in no way means you shouldn't protect your skin from the sun, because too much sun exposure is dangerous.
How is energy captured and transfered in photo?
It is about pigments. they are absorbing sun light.
