Question
Answer
radiation   energy that is radiated or transmitted in the form of rays or waves or particles  
🗑
conduction   the direct transfer of energy with molecules into each other.  
🗑
convection   the transfer of heat by the flow of heated material.  
🗑
Sun   the source of a ll energy in our atmoshere  
🗑
what are 3 things happen when Earth receives energy from the sun?   1. Some energy is reflected back into space.2. Some is absorbed by the atmosphere.3. Some is absorbed by land and water.  
🗑
heat transfer   transition of thermal energy from a hotter mass to a cooler mass  
🗑
what happens when Energy from the sun reaches Earth by radiation.   Radiant energy can pass through space.  
🗑
what does convection occur in?   gases and liquids.  
🗑
Where does radiation occur?   naturally in the physical world.  
🗑
Where does the study of radioactivity begin?   it pushes up warmer air creating a convection current.  
🗑
what happens As cold air becomes more dense?    
🗑
why are radiation and heat are two different things.   Heat is transfer of energy from object with high temp  
🗑
Most radiation coming from Earth’s surface is...   absorbed and heats up our atmosphere.  
🗑
What is a example of conduction?   walking barfoot on a hot pavement  
🗑
The balance among the source of all energy in our atmosphere determines what?   the characteristics of our atmosphere and the life it supports.  
🗑
Conduction is direct contact between what?   two objects, like warm land or water directly heating the air mass above it.  
🗑
Convection can do what?   heating the atmosphere after radiation and conduction  
🗑
convection is the cycling of what?   warm/cold currents that drives weather patterns  
🗑
radiation can also refer to what?   electromagnetic radiation  
🗑
Where does conduction take place.   from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature  
🗑
