,What is the composition of the atmosphere (Permanent Gases)? - 🧠

ANSWER ✔✔1) Nitrogen (N2)- 78.08%
2
2) Oxygen (O2)- 20.95%

3) Argon (Ar)- .93%

4) Neon (Ne)- .0018%


Define radiation - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the emission and transmission of energy

through particles or waves


Define electromagnetic spectrum - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔the range of

wavelengths or frequencies over which electromagnetic radiation extends.


Define conduction - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The transfer kinetic of energy from

particle to particle.


Give and example of conduction - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Cold spoon into hot soup


Define thermal conductivity - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The ability of an object to

transfer heat

Why is the air closest to the surface warmer during the day? - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔conduction from the earth's surface to the air in contact with it

,Why is the air closest to the surface cooler at night? - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔earth's surface has a radiation deficit, thus cooling and conduction then
3
cools the air in contact with the surface


What is a nocturnal inversion? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔When low level air

temperatures are cooler due to conduction, while temperature of the air

above increases with altitude


Define convection - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The transfer of heat via vertical

movement of air


What is free convection? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Warm air rising freely


Define Planck's law - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Every object emits radiation at all

times and at all wavelengths.


Define Wien's Law - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The hotter an object, the shorter the

wavelength at maximum emission. (The hotter the object the brighter)

According to Wein's law where does peak emission occur? - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔At infrared wavelengths


Stephan-Boltzmann Law - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔As temperature increases so

does the amount of energy emitted

, Kirchhoff's Law - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔With constant temperature, an object that

absorbs radiation efficiently at a particular wavelength will also emit
4
radiation efficiently at that wavelength.

When electromagnetic radiation strikes a surface what can happen to the

radiation? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔1) Absorption


2) Scattering

3) Transmission


Define radiation transmission - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔When radiation passes

through an object virtually unaffected


What is an example of radiation transmission - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Visible light

passing through a glass window


Describe radiation absorption - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Extinguishing of radiation,

amount of radiation extinguished depends on radiation wavelength and

object composition


Describe radiation scattering - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Reflecting of radiation off an

object
