Why is the surface temp of Venus 750K?
Venus has a high surface temperature of 750K due to its thick atmosphere composed primarily of carbon dioxide, which traps heat from the Sun through the greenhouse effect. This causes a runaway greenhouse effect on Venus, leading to extremely high surface temperatures despite being further from the Sun than Mercury.
What effect can a very large eruption have on earths climate?
It will cool the earth's surface as radiation from the sun is blocked from entering the atmosphere
The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?
The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when gases like carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere trap heat radiating from the planet's surface, leading to a warming effect.
What is hotter surface of sun or core of earth?
Surface of the sun is hotter.
Which layer is hotter then the surface of the sun?
The inner core is hotter then the sun's surface.
The Sun's surface seethes and churns with a bubbling pattern Why?
The bubbling pattern on the Sun's surface is caused by convection. Hot material rises from within the Sun, cools off at the surface, and then sinks back down below, creating a continuous cycle of motion. This convection process is responsible for generating the Sun's magnetic field and driving solar activity like sunspots and solar flares.
Bubbling motions pass energy through which layer of the sun?
The photosphere is the uppermost layer of the sun. It passes energy through this layer with a bubbling motion, carrying hotter, less dense material to the upper surface as the cooled, denser material sinks deeper into the surface.
What is the name of marks seen on the surface of sun?
Sunspot
Have you seen the dark spot on the sun what is it called where it is formed what causes it?
Yes I have seen a dark spot on the Sun. It is called a "Sunspot". It is formed on the Sun's surface which is called the "photo-sphere" and is caused by a loop of the Sun's magnetic field poking though the Sun's surface.
What is sometimes seen emerging from the sun's surface?
solar flares
What provides the light seen on the moon?
The sun provides the light seen on the moon, because the sun's rays hits the moon's surface
What is the bright red layer of the sun surface containing hydrogen gas that can seen?
The bright red layer of the sun's surface containing hydrogen gas that can be seen is called the chromosphere. It lies just above the sun's visible surface, the photosphere, and is responsible for the red color seen during solar eclipses.
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.
What is the bubbling characteristic of the photosphere called?
The bubbling characteristic of the photosphere is called solar granulation. These granules are caused by the convective motion of plasma beneath the surface of the Sun, creating cells of rising hot plasma and sinking cooler plasma that appear as granules on the photosphere.
Which electromagnetic waves from the sun produce a heating effect?
Infrared radiation from the sun produces a heating effect on the Earth's surface. This radiation is responsible for warming the planet and heating objects on the surface.
What part of the sun does storm clouds occur in?
I assume you are talking about sunspots, as they are, in effect, "storms on the sun". They occur on or near the sun's surface.
Can stars be seen from the moon when the sun is shining?
No, the moon's surface is too reflective when the light is shining, and therefore the sun's light reflected from the moon's surface blocks any stars from being visible from the surface of the moon by either eye or camera.
