The ionosphere. To clarify, only the low-frequency radio waves incorrectly called "high-frequency" or "HF" of about 50MHz and below are reflected. "Very High Frequency" VHF signals are not reflected, but go straight off into space.

For example, in the "AM" commercial broadcast spectrum, the transmission is reflected back to the Earth and is receivable for great distances, a phenomenon that used to be called "skip". AM signals are in the band of 550KHZ to 1.6 MHz. "FM" stations in the band from 88MHz to 108MHz are only received by "Line of sight" transmissions.

Which atmosphere is electrically charged particles found in?

Electrically charged particles are found in the ionosphere, a region of the Earth's upper atmosphere that extends from about 48 kilometers (30 miles) to 965 kilometers (600 miles) above the Earth's surface. The ionosphere contains ions and free electrons that are formed due to the ionization of molecules by solar radiation.

Auroras are caused by electrically charged particles in the?

Auroras are caused by electrically charged particles from the sun interacting with the Earth's magnetic field. When these particles collide with gases in the Earth's atmosphere, they produce beautiful light displays known as auroras.


What is the name for the lower portion of the thermosphere where particles become electrically charged?

The region within the lower portion of the thermosphere where particles become electrically charged is called the ionosphere. This layer of the atmosphere contains a high concentration of ions and free electrons, which allows it to reflect radio waves and facilitate long-distance communication.

What atmospheric layer contains electrically chargered particles?

The ionosphere is the atmospheric layer that contains electrically charged particles. It is located between the mesosphere and the exosphere and plays a key role in the propagation of radio waves and the formation of auroras.
