Earths nearest star radiates what type of energy?
Radiant and gravitational Energy.
Why are carbon dioxide water vapor and other greenhouse gases important to life on Earths surface?
They absorb radiant energy emitted by Earths surface
Why are the days short?
Days are short because of the earths rotation. So if England was rotating northwards, England would have shorter days!
The Earth's surface absorbs more radiant energy from the sun than the atmosphere?
yes the earths surface absorbs more radiant energy from the sun than the atmosphere GOOD LUCK :)
What outer planets have periods of rotation shorter than earths?
They all have.
Is mars day longer or shorter or longer than earths?
longer
What shorter words do conservation and water reclamation based on?
