Answer 2

The solar energy that warms the Earth includes visible light, infrared and B) ultraviolet radiation coming from the sun.

Explanation:

Solar radiation, which is part of a broad collection of energy known as the electromagnetic radiation spectrum, carries all of the energy from the Sun that reaches the Earth.

Gamma rays:

• The disintegration of an atomic nucleus produces gamma rays, which are ionising electromagnetic radiation.
• In matter, gamma rays are more penetrating and can cause significant harm to live cells.

Ultraviolet radiation:

• UV radiation is utilised in a range of industrial operations as well as medical and dental treatments for a variety of purposes, including destroying bacteria, creating fluorescent effects, curing inks and resins, phototherapy, and suntanning.

Microwaves:

• Microwaves are widely employed in modern technology, such as point-to-point communication lines, wireless networks, microwave radio relay networks, radar, satellite, and spacecraft communication, to name a few examples.

Sunspots:

• Because they are cooler than other portions of the Sun's surface, they seem dark.
