The stratosphere and the thermosphere are the two layers of the atmosphere that heat up because they absorb high-energy rays from the sun. The ozone layer in the stratosphere absorbs UV radiation, while the thermosphere absorbs extreme ultraviolet and X-ray radiation.
The troposphere and thermosphere are the layers of the atmosphere where most of the energy transfer occurs. In the troposphere, heat is transferred through processes like convection and radiation, while in the thermosphere, energy is primarily transferred through absorption of solar radiation.
Gamma particles can be stopped by dense materials such as lead or concrete. These materials absorb the energy of the gamma particles, reducing their penetrating ability. Thicker layers of these materials are required to fully absorb the gamma radiation.
Atmospheric stratification is important in understanding the Earth's climate system because it helps to regulate the distribution of heat and energy in the atmosphere. This stratification creates different layers of air with varying temperatures and densities, which influence weather patterns and climate dynamics. By studying these layers, scientists can better predict and understand how changes in the atmosphere impact the Earth's climate.
The atmosphere is NOT again I repeat NOT a layer. The layers are the exosphere, the thermosphere, the ionosphere, the mesosphere, the stratosphere, the ozonesphere, and the troposphere.
In a star, energy is primarily transferred through radiation in the outer layers and through convection in the inner layers. In the core, where nuclear fusion occurs, energy is generated and eventually travels outward through the layers by radiation, heating up the outer layers.
It is because some layers have gases that have gases that easily absorb the Sun's energy while the other layer do not. So some layer become cold and some layers become warm or hot. Please see the wikipedia page on the Earth's Atmosphere at the link below.
Troposphere does not absorb solar radiation. All other layers do not absorb.
No, not all the radiation absorbed in the Earth's atmosphere is absorbed in the stratosphere. Different layers of the atmosphere absorb different amounts of radiation. The stratosphere mainly absorbs ultraviolet radiation, while other layers like the troposphere absorb various wavelengths of radiation as well.
The thermosphere and exosphere layers of the atmosphere have little thermal energy because they are very thin and have low air density. These layers are composed of very few gas molecules, which results in very high temperatures but low thermal energy due to the lack of molecules to transfer heat.
Because Science.
Because.
No, not all radiation absorbed in the Earth's atmosphere is absorbed in the stratosphere. Different layers of the atmosphere absorb different types of radiation. For example, the ozone layer in the stratosphere absorbs a significant amount of ultraviolet radiation, but other layers like the troposphere also absorb certain wavelengths of radiation.
Because ATMOSPHERE goes around our ROUND Earth!
because there are different pressures in the air.
It depends on their position and the way solar energy is absorbed.
it is because all the layers have tempatures that are either cold or hot
the trophosphere because it is near to the earth
