The suns energy travels by electromagnetic?
Waves
How energy from the sun be turned into electricity?
Here are two direct ways to convert sun energy to electricity:Photovoltaics (solar panels) converts the light waves directly to electric current.Using the suns heat energy to boil water and the steam turbine runs a generator.Indirect ways:Windmills (wind and weather are result of the suns energy interaction with the air and moisture in the atmosphere).Dams in rivers. The sun evaporates water into the atmosphere. The water precipitates back to earth and flows into rivers, back to the ocean.
How does water provides energy?
Water its self does not provide energy, however it can store some of the Suns energy, usefully in the form of potential energy (by virtue of its elevation in the gravity field of the planet).
What can radiation not do that convection and conduction can do?
Since radiation is done by electromagnetic waves, it can travel through space. i.e no matter is required. That way you can heat up objects through space. Or, for example, the earth gets heated by the suns electromagnetic waves.
Does the energy from evaporation come from the sun?
Yes, it does because the suns rays heat the the water so that is can evaporate
Are suns rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
The suns energy travels by electromagnetic?
Waves
How does the suns energy warm us?
through heat waves
What suns energy which supports life is transmitted to Earth in the form of?
waves
Why can you hear AM radio waves better at night?
because th suns beams don't inter-fear with the waves
What is the the transfer if the suns energy by electromagenetic waves?
the tranfer of energy from the sun in form of electromagnetic waves is known as radiation.
Are the suns waves electromagnetic waves?
The sun is a mechanical wave because it doesn't have radio waves in it and it doesn't have spectrum energy, unlike electromagnetic energy.
In what way is the suns energy stored in plants?
The suns energy is converted to sugar through photosynthesis. The plant uses this sugar to grow and create pollen
Are the sun waves mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
What is the primary source of the suns energy?
Nuclear fusion. Mainly, hydrogen-1 is converted to helium-4.
How do water evaporate from body's of water?
The suns heat evaporates water.
What does the Suns energy do to water in the water cycle?
it makes the water evaperate
