Question

Which do you think is more: the amount of energy the Earth receives from the sun or the

amount of energy the Earthe ends into space? .

Answer 1

The Earth receives more energy from the Sun than it radiates into space.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of energy the Earth receives from the Sun is greater than the amount of energy the Earth radiates into space.

The Earth receives almost all its energy from radiation of the Sun and reflects some of it back into outer space. Because the Sun is hotter than the Earth, the net energy flux is from the Sun to the Earth.

For example, the Sun delivers energy to the top of the Earth's atmosphere at a rate of 1,360 W/m². Only about 30% of this light is reflected back to space, while the remaining 70% is absorbed by the Earth.
