Answer 1

The sun is a huge source of energy transmitted at all parts of the spectrum. We deal with "usual" energy transmittals in certain ways. For example, AM radio stations that broadcast overnight adjust their signal around sunset. This leads to anonolies in radio reception; nearby stations may not be strong enough, while stations hundreds of miles away come in clearly. The transient energy transmittals pose problems. Every so often, the sun experiences a "solar storm", where an unusually high burst of energy occurs. This burst interacts with the Earth's magnetic field, and can disrupt radio or TV transmissions. The sun also transmits energy in the ultraviolet, which would be dangerous to life forms. But ozone in the high atmosphere absorbs much of this. The sun's transmission in the UV and IR also has impacts on people's activities in the sun, and the development of suntan lotion to combat adverse effects.

I hope that's what you wanted. Have a sunny day.
