What is the term given to heat and light radiated from the sun?
The term for heat and light radiated from the sun is solar energy.
Sun's energy is formed of what of energy?
The hydrogen in the Sun has nuclear energy (a type of potential energy). When this is fused, it is converted to heat energy. This eventually gets radiated out as light energy.
Where and how is the Sun and radiant energy Radiated?
Nuclear fusion creates energy in the Sun's core and is radiated outward through the Sun's layers
What type of Energy form is Sun?
The hydrogen in the Sun has nuclear energy (a type of potential energy). When this is fused, it is converted to heat energy. This eventually gets radiated out as light energy.
The suns energy is a form of what type of energy?
The energy radiated from the Sun is electromagnetic energy.
Where can the energy in all food humans eat be traced to?
Ultimately - the Sun, or at least the radiated light and heat energy given off by it
What is the name of the surface of the sun which is seen from the earth?
The visible surface of the sun is called the photosphere. It emits light that we can see, and is where most of the sun's energy is radiated into space.
Is heat the only form of energy that is radiated?
No, heat is not the only form of energy that is radiated. there is also light along with other energies.. Yes, it it the only form of energy that is radiated.
How fast does the sun's energy travel through space?
Most of the Sun's energy is radiated as light, and other electromagnetic waves. These travel at about 300,000 km/sec.; to be precise, the speed of light is exactly 299,792,458 meters per second.
The unit for measuring the rate at which light energy is rediated from a source is what?
The unit for measuring the rate at which light energy is radiated from a source is the lumen. The lumen is symbolized as lm.
Where and how is the Sun and radiant energy?
Nuclear fusion creates energy in the Sun's core and is radiated outward through the Sun's layers
Is the energy released in nuclear fusion immediately converted into light that leaves the sun?
No, the core of the sun is pretty opaque and the energy released will be absorbed and re-emitted many, many times before it finally makes it to the surface and is radiated away as light.
