What is the total precentage of radiation that is reflected by earths atmosphere

Physics
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago
6 0

Around 48 % of the incoming solar energy passes through the atmospheric layer of the earth. The water vapor,ozone and dust present in the atmosphere absorbs 23 percent of incoming solar energy .Thus about 71% of the incoming solar radiation is absorbed by the earth. The rest 29% of the incoming solar radiation is reflected back into the space.

GaryK [48]

The earth's liquid outer core is the major cause of the earth’s magnetic field.

<h3>What is magnetic field?</h3>

The magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, and magnetic materials is described by a magnetic field, a vector field. A force acting on a charge while it travels through a magnetic field is perpendicular to both the charge's motion and the magnetic field. The magnetic field of a permanent magnet attracts or repels other magnets as well as ferromagnetic elements like iron. A magnetic field that varies with location will also exert a force on a variety of non-magnetic materials by changing the velocity of those particles' outer electrons. Electric currents, like those utilised in electromagnets, and electric fields that change over time produce magnetic fields that surround magnetised things.

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?
marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is ________ the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to
Vsevolod [243]

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is <u>equal to </u>the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to Earth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The force that attracts any two objects/bodies with mass towards each other is defined as gravitational force. Generally the gravitational force is attractive, as it always pulls the masses together and never pushes them apart.

The gravitational force can be calculated effectively using the following formula: F=GMmr^2  

where “G” is the gravitational constant.

Though gravity has the ability to pull the masses together, it is the weakest force in the nature.

The mass of the Earth and moon varies, but still the gravitational force felt by the Earth and Moon are alike.

How does an increase in thermal energy affect the state of matter?
shusha [124]

Answer:

When thermal energy is added to a substance, its temperature increases, which can change its state from solid to liquid (melting), liquid to gas (vaporization), or solid to gas (sublimation). ... When the pressure exerted on a substance increases, it can cause the substance to condense.

Explanation:

Hope it will help use
