solar radiation, electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Solar ...

1 Student Sheet 1 All of the energy from the Sun that reaches the Earth arrives as Solar radiation , part of a large collection of energy called the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Solar radiation includes visible light , ultraviolet light , infrared, radio waves, X- rays , and gamma rays . The electromagnetic Spectrum radiation is one way to transfer heat. To radiate means to send out or spread from a central location. Whether it is light , sound, waves, rays , flower petals, wheel spokes or pain, if something radiates then it spreads outward from a starting point. You experience radiation personally whenever you get out of the shower, soaking wet, in the dead of winter and enjoy the warmth of the heat lamp in your bathroom. The heat lamp beams out heat to you and keeps you warm through radiation . With radiation , electromagnetic waves carry the energy. electromagnetic radiation comes from accelerating electric charges. On a molecular level, that s what happens as objects warm up their molecules vibrate harder and harder, causing acceleration of electric charges.

Solar radiation includes visible light, ultraviolet light, infrared, radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. The Electromagnetic Spectrum Radiation is one way to transfer heat. To “radiate” means to send out or spread from a central location. Whether it is light, sound, waves, rays, flower petals, wheel spokes or pain,

ability to control temperature. The condition of the body's temperature is the information fed back to the brain, which is the controller. If the temperature is high, the body sweats in order to cool down. Since the process of sweating is done to stop the temperature change, this is a negative feedback.

TEACHER BACKGROUND: SPECIFICS OF HEAT TRANSFER

gml.noaa.gov

In a new scenario, a metal can containing hot water is placed in a Styrofoam cup containing cold water. Heat is transferred from the hot water to the cold water until both samples have the same temperature. The transfer of heat from the hot water through the metal can to the cold water is referred to as conduction.

means cooler summers and milder winters. Slow changes in the Earth’s orbit lead to small but climatically important changes in the strength of the seasons over tens of thousands of years. Climate feedbacks amplify these small changes, thereby producing ice ages. Solar variations - The Sun is the source of energy for the Earth’s climate system.

corals display different sensitivities to changes in aragΩ and SST [Reynaud et al., 2003]. Considering that both these environmental parameters are likely to change considerably in the future, additional experiments on a variety of differing coral species will be crucial to obtain a better understanding of future coral reef stability.

Every object we see has many rays of light coming from it either by reflection or because it is a light source such as a light bulb, the Sun, a star, etc. Each point on that object is a source of light rays. In the illustration below, the tip of the arrow is used as an example of a point on the object from which rays of light would be coming.
