The Earth's Energy Budget

 

The way the Earth interacts ___ (1)___ the sun's energy can be displayed in a diagram called the Earth’s energy budget. It displays the sun's energy that reaches us and how much of that energy absorbed and reflected is by the earth and___(36)___atmosphere. Solar energy reaches earth as electromagnetic radiation. Once the energy reaches earth, some of it is absorbed by the atmosphere, ___(37)___ clouds.

Some of it makes it to the earth's surface, and is ___(38)___ by land and oceans. The ___(39)___ of energy absorbed affects temperature. The energy ___(40)___ is not absorbed by the earth or its atmosphere is reflected. back out to space in the same wavelengths in which it came to earth. On ___(41)___, the amount of energy coming in is equal to the amount of energy going out. Therefore, we say the earth's energy budget is balanced. ___(42)___ more energy was coming in than was going out, the earth's temperature would increase. On the other hand, if too much energy is reflected, and not absorbed, we'll see a ___(43)___ in the earth's temperatures.

X. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions (10 pts)

In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater priority on harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately, there are a number of readily available, renewable resources that are both cost- effective and earth – friendly. Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power.

Solar energy, which reaches the earth through sunlight, is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide energy consumption 6,000 times over. And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity. In theUSalone, more than 100, 000 homes are equipped with solar electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles. And in other parts of the world, including many developing countries, the use of solar system is growing steadily.

Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power, which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth. Hot water and steam that are trapped in underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which is produces electricity. Geothermal energy is 50, 000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources. And as with solar power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple. A prime example of effective geothermal use inIceland, a region of high geothermal activity where over 80 percent of private homes are heated by geothermal power.

Solar and geothermal energy are just two of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy sources. The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on global scale.
