climate change/factors

what is the high albedo effect

• none of the above

• all of the above

• when the radiation is absorbed

• when the radiation is reflected back

State the proportion of insolation which (a) is absorbed by the earth’s surface, (b) is absorbed by the atmosphere, and (c) is lost to space.

• none of the above

•  30% is reflected back to space and 23% is absorbed by the atmosphere

• 31% is absorbed by the atmosphere and 20%is reflected back to space

• non is reflected back

means that some solar radiation is reflected (the % would be low) and solar radiation would be absorbed .

what is the difference between global warming and green-house gasses?

the difference between scattering and reflection

Why does the equator receive more energy from the sun than the poles?

• poles due to its direct exposure to sunlight.  This is Because Earth is a sphere

• because the earth is tilted

• because the earth is tilted horizontal

• non of the above

• all of the above
