On which day of the year would the intensity of the insolation of Kingston New York most likely be greatest?
June 21
Same and differences of albedo and insolation?
The albedo effect is how a darker material gets hotter faster than a lighter material. Insolation is the solar radiation from the sun.
The change in earth's total insolation is caused by?
sunspots
How many units of solar insolation out of 100 actually make it to the ground?
About 51.
What is the angle of insolation on the winter equinox?
The value will depend on the latitude, but relative to the rest of the year it is at a minimum.
What is the definition for intensity of insolation?
Intensity of insolation refers to the intensity of the sun's rays on the earth's surface. It is a measure of solar energy that is received by a given surface area at a given time.
What is the relationship between the altitude of the Sun and the intensity of insolation at a particular area?
As the altitude of the sun increases, the intensity of insolation for that area will increase as well.
On December 21st where is the intensity of insolation the greatest?
At the Tropic of Capricorn.
What is the angle of insolation on the equator?
The angle of insolation affects the intensity of insolation directly. In other words, as the angle of insolation increases, so does the intensity of insolation because the Sun is directly overhead at Zenith, giving off direct, or vertical rays. The opposite happens when the angle of insolation decreases, causing a decrease in the intensity of insolation as well.
Since Los Angeles and phoenix are at the same latitude what can you infer about the intensity of insolation a?
Since they are at the same latitude it is most likely that something else is making the temperature different than the intensity of insolation affecting the temperature in both areas.
What is intensity of insolation?
Normal to the Sun's rays, very roughly 1kW per m^2
On which day of the year would the intensity of the insolation of Kingston New York most likely be greatest?
June 21
On which day of the year would the intensity of insolation at Kingston New York most likely be greatest?
June 21 at 12 noon
What are the types of insolation?
Direct and diffused insolation.
How does the angle of insolation of sunlight affect energy concentration?
The higher the angle of insolation (concentration), the more direct sunlight. Think that you have a light bulb lightening up a small bathroom and when its lightening up any other place like a big room ,the intensity is less so you get less light than the bathroom.
What has the lowest insolation?
Insolation is a measurement of the solar radiation received by a surface over a unit time. Polar regions have the lowest insolation.
What is the duration of insolation on march 21?
The duration of insolation on March 21 is 12 hours daylight. The duration of insolation is dependent on temperature, season and latitude.
