The earth is hotter at its core and cooler as we look farther out. As regards the surface of the planet, it is warmer at the equator, and cooler toward and at the poles. There will be some slight variation owing to seasonal changes, but that is the basic answer.

The Arctic (Most Northern) and Antarctic ( Most Southern) have the lowest temperatures.

Which part of the earth receive less heat why?
The farther from the equator, the weaker the sunlight gets.
Why was early Earth hit with so many meteors than the current earth?
When the earth was young, the atmosphere was thinner. A thin atmosphere burns through less material as an asteroid is falling. More Meteorites impact because there is less friction caused, and thus less heat. Some lighter substances actually can blow up when entering the atmosphere because of the heat and friction.
What would happen if more of the suns heat became trapped in earth's atmosphere and less heat was released into space would the earth get hotter or colder?
If more of the sun's heat became trapped, it would be like putting a heavy blanket over the Earth. Everything would become warmer.
Describe the air temperature in regions of the earth that receive less heat?
because it is farther to the sun and can't get the direct sunlight
What elevates the temperature of the earth?
More heat in & less heat out. Actually those are transients ... in the end they are always equal. Heat in changes with reflectivity of the Earth, changes in the sun, and changes in the Earth's orbit. Heat out is modified by clouds and "green-house gases".
Which part of the earth less heat why?
The farther from the equator, the weaker the sunlight gets.

What part of the earth heat faster?
Heat is more in the equator...
What do you think will happen if the earth absorbs more heat and release less heat?
If the earth absorbs the heat, the earth will become very dry and superheated. This will cause many bushfires.
When does the earth receive less heat from the sun?
when earth absorbs the heat coming from the sunthere is too much moisture in the air3.when the clouds reflect the heat back to the space
How does the heat form the sun travel to the earth?
Heat travels from the Sun to the Earth in waves. These waves are part of the solar radiation process.
Why temperature falls as you go higher?
the earth gives off much heat. as you ascend higher into the atmosphere, there is less heat from the earth, and fewer UV.
Does the sun heat up all part of the earth evenly?
No.
What part of the earth is the warmest and why?
the equater is the warmest part of the earth because it's the fatest part of the earth. Which means the equater gets the most sunlight to allow it to heat up.
What would happen if more of suns heat became trapped in earth's atmosphere and less heat was released into space?
The Earth would start to heat up and the ocean would evaporate.

The Earth would start to heat up and the ocean would evaporate.
Where does earth get its internal energy?
I assume you mean the heat in Earth's interior. This heat comes from three sources. (1) Heat left over from when the Earth formed. This part should be quite insignificant, since Earth has had enough time to cool down. (2) Decay of radioactive isotopes. (3) The fact that the liquid part of the Earth is gradually solidifying also generates heat.
