How does the Sun's heat energy heat the Earth?

Radiation through electromagnetic waves.

Which has the largest wavelengths?

Radio Waves

Conduction is

Transfer by direct contact of molecules.

Sea Breeze...

Wind that blows from the sea to the land during the day.

Why is the sky blue?

Due to scattering of shorter wavelengths of visible light

What is the Greenhouse Effect?

Gasses trap heat in the air keeping the Earth at a comfortable temperature.

What form of heat transfer is shown?

Convection

What is a Convection Current?

Warm air rising because its less dense, once it becomes cooler it sinks because its more dense.

What form of heat transfer is shown?

Conduction

What form of heat transfer is shown?

Radiation

Which has the shortest wavelengths?

Gamma Rays

Global Winds...

Winds that blow over long distances.

Land Breeze...

Wind that blows from the land to the sea at night.

Convection is

Transfer of energy due to density differences (high pressure to low pressure)
