Why do objects that lie half in and half out of water appear distorted?

Clouds absorb upwelling longwave radiation, and themselves radiate as a nearly perfect blackbody down to the surface. This is called

As air temperatures increase, evaporation increases. Warmer temperatures also increase the capacity to absorb water vapor. More water vapor in the atmosphere accelerates the greenhouse effect.

Which statement accurately describes what happens when water turns into steam in terms of energy? A. The water absorbs energy which causes chemical bonds to break changing the water to steam B.

The batteries in A flashlight rechargeable what energy conservation will have to take place in order to recharge the batteries.
