What happens to the moon when the moon is illuminated by sun rays?
The surface of the moon heats up.
Can gamma rays reach the ground from space?
Gamma rays from space are absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. However, gamma rays can still be detected on the ground as it is naturally emitted by radioactive decay occurring in rocks.
What does irradiation use?
Irradiation uses high-energy rays, such as gamma rays, X-rays, or electron beams, to kill bacteria and other pathogens in food products. This process helps to extend the shelf life of the food and reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses.
When the sun's rays hits a living animal or plat what is this process called?
photosynthesis
What is the ground heated by?
The ground is heated by the sun's rays penetrating the Earth's atmosphere and warming the surface. The heat is absorbed by the ground and retained, which contributes to the overall temperature of the Earth's surface.
What makes the breeze blow towards land by day?
The sun rays heat the ground more than they heat the water. As a result the ground heats up. The air next to the ground warms up, expands and rises. The cooler and heavier air, from over the water moves in to replace it.
What is radiography a tech?
Radiography is the process whereby an image of a solid object is produced using radiation such as x-rays, gamma rays or neutrons penetrating the object.
What happens to the moon when the moon is illuminated by sun rays?
The surface of the moon heats up.
What process allows wet clothes on a clothes line to absorb heat from the sun?
There are two sources of heat from the Sun , one is infrared, which are light rays that heat objects by absorption, and convection , which heats the air.
Why does the ground get warm during the day?
The ground gets warm during the day because it absorbs heat from the sun's rays. The sunlight heats the surface of the earth, and the ground then absorbs this heat energy, causing it to warm up.
Does the ozone layer absorb solar energy and heats the stratophere?
No, it doesn't. It just absorbs the UV rays.
How do infrared radiation cook food?
Infrared radiation heats food by directly transferring energy to the molecules in the food, causing them to vibrate and generate heat. This can cook food faster than traditional cooking methods like conduction or convection as it heats the food from the inside out. This process is similar to how the sun's rays warm your body on a sunny day.
Can gamma rays reach the ground from space?
Gamma rays from space are absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. However, gamma rays can still be detected on the ground as it is naturally emitted by radioactive decay occurring in rocks.
How is salt obtained from sea water in pans?
Normally the salt is removed from the water by the process of evaporation, using the sun's rays to remove the water.
When do you use ultra violet rays in everyday life?
Humans make vitamin D using UV-A from the Sun. We regulate this process by making melanin.
Why does soil seem to shimmer in hot summer day?
Soil shimmers in the hot sun because of a phenomenon called mirage, where light rays are refracted due to temperature gradients in the air just above the ground. As the ground heats up, air near the surface becomes hotter, causing light rays to bend and creating the illusion of shimmering or rippling in the distance.
What are the waves that carry rays of heat in an oven called?
For The conventional oven, there would be convection that heats and re-heats the air. As the heat rises, it peaks and cools, then drops back down just to be heated up again.
